I thought this was standard when I actually played the hand, but I was discussing it with a friend and he disagreed, so I thought I'd post it here.
This table has been very passive so far. Virtually no 3-betting preflop, and I cannot count on anyone else to raise.
The main villain in this hand is, as far as I can tell so far, a straightforward player who doesn't get out of line preflop. Postflop, few reads so far, I think he's fit-or-fold. If he's been paying attention (which is possible for this villain), I have been c-betting a lot of flops after a preflop raise, but he has yet to play back at me.
Effective stacks are ~180.
Hero is UTG with 7
7
Hero raises to $7, 5 callers including Villain in the BB
Flop A
7
6
Checks to Hero, Hero bets $30, folds to Villain, Villain raises to $80, Hero...
Villain has just check-raised about half his stack. He's got under $100 left. I'm pretty sure his raise means that he has an ace and has decided to take a stand against me.
Can I expect him to call if I shove right now?
