Hero has 7d7c in SB ~$330 effective

Limos around, button raises to 9. I call and BB calls

Pot ~ $35

Flop comes 7s Jh 6h

I check
BB donks for $25
Button calls
I raise to $100

So here’s the thought… should I be raising bigger since I know bb is a fish who loves to chase draws? I’m thinking I should bump maybe to $125, he mighttt call $150 but rare.

Both make the call. Pot ~$335

Turn Kc

I jam all in for $180

BB folds
Button tank calls

River is 8h

Villain shows AhKh I get wrekt but oh well.

Second question. In his shoes should be be calling my jam when he turns top top with a redraw to the flush? He basically has to call $180 to win a $680 pot so maybe that’s the right move?

You’re only leaving 180 behind for the turn so your sizing looks OK.

As for the turn, remember that it’s hard for people to put you on a set (or at least it’s supposed to be). If he knows you have a set he is supposed to fold, but he probably figures he is good sometimes and has more than his actual 8 outs even more of the time.

Your sizing is OK. If stacks were deeper then a little bigger would be better after button calls the BB donk. Your facing the problem that if you make it bigger on the flop you won't have enough left on the turn to apply any pressure. If you make it $150 on the flop the pot will be $435 and you will only have $130 left, at that point villain is never folding. He is more or less priced in to chase his nut flush even if you show him your set.

As is, if you showed villain your hand he should fold. But with TPTK and a nut flush draw to save him if he doesn't have the best hand it's hard to fold. If you had raised with AJ he is ahead now, if he gives you a chance of AK he is chopping with outs to win, if he gives you 76 or a worse flush draw or a straight draw or a combo draw he is priced in.

Remember, you want him to make this call. If this situation comes up 100 times you come out ahead in the end even if you lose 18% or so of the hands.

All chips are going in on that flop / run out. I wouldn’t worry at all about it

Sizing was ok for your stack size, maybe 125 then jam the turn, but I don't think it would have let you win the hand or anything. The hand played itself out.

As long as you GII, how you do it against these mouth breathers likely won’t matter too much. I like the way you played it, NH.
