Pre Flop: Hero is BB with T

6 folds, CO calls t50, 1 fold, SB calls t25, Hero checks

Flop: (t150) 7

SB checks, Hero bets t133, CO raises to t266, SB folds, Hero ships or folds?

Are we too weak to shove here? His minraise stinks of draw protection

I wouldn't bet flop unless i had already decided to 3-bet/fold. I hate bet/calling flops like this.

Is checking flop here at this stage ok?

I don't think so. Gotta bet that.

If we were first to act I would also prefer a check/call, but SB has already checked and there wasn't much action preflop, so it's likely your hand is best and I bet this too.

I shove here. I don't think you'll see a set here very often, which should raise much stronger on this board. Sometimes you'll face a made straight, but most times I think you are in front here.
