draw 1 or 2 here? caller to my immidiate left is best player in game. tight, but might be tilting a little. 2nd caller is awful. 3rd caller is weak/bad

Draw one. The wheel is a pretty strong hand.

Need to know how many cards they drew. In my experience you are drawing dead a bunch here and to half the rest of the time so it seems like a fold. But really draw 1 on 1st. I can’t imagine ever drawing 2 with this hand.

I also prefer draw 1 initially and would check after d2 as played
As played I cry call but if its a 5b instead of 4b cap that might be enough to make it a fold

Ok first of all draw to a wheel.
Secondly we need some more information on all of the draws, but as this is presented i would fold for the two bets. I also don't like betting the turn - an A7 flush draw looks nice but it can very very easily be a dog for both sides of the pot with only one draw to come. This is also why one should draw 1 pre, and why YOU drew 2 - you overestimated the strength of this exact hand
