PokerStars - $0.05 NL FAST (6 max) - Holdem - 6 players

Hero (BTN): 100 BB
SB: 287.2 BB
BB: 100 BB unknown
UTG: 47.6 BB
MP: 100 BB
CO: 157.8 BB

SB posts SB 0.4 BB, BB posts BB 1 BB

Pre Flop: (pot: 1.4 BB) Hero has A

fold, fold, fold, Hero raises to 2.6 BB, fold, BB raises to 10 BB, Hero raises to 23 BB, BB calls 13 BB

Flop: (46.4 BB, 2 players) J

BB checks, Hero bets 11 BB, BB raises to 77 BB and is all-in, Hero calls 66 BB and is all-in

i mostly call pre, sometimes raise. should be fine.

do you cbet this flop? sizing? reviewing the hand i think a check would be better.
the call did not feel good, but i think i can't fold TP here..

Any thoughts? Thanks

While 4betting A7s in theory could most certainly be fine, that would be specifically vs a competent opponent that is 3betting you 12-13% here. I'd imagine that really isn't the case and you'd be better off not 4-betting as a default since it's difficult to imagine the average villain at 5z in these positions would have that high of a 3b frequency here and result in a situation in which your 4b bluff is breakeven or better.

As above for pre-flop.
As played, I would check the flop.
As played again, I think you have to call off once you get there. Given the price and that you have decent equity against AK, V doesn't have to have many combo draws, pair plus draw type hands to make this profitable. Plus, the occasional spaz out that you can expect at 5nl. I would expect to be behind a lot though.
