BTN: 92 BB
Hero (SB): 118.5 BB
BB: 202 BB
UTG: 102 BB
MP: 115 BB
CO: 104 BB

Hero posts SB 0.5 BB, BB posts BB 1 BB

Pre Flop: (pot: 1.5 BB) Hero has 7d 7c
fold, fold, fold, BTN raises to 3 BB, Hero raises to 12 BB, fold, BTN calls 9 BB

I sometimes raise and call with 77's here, I know very unnecessary for micros but I want to play as best I can lol

Flop : (25 BB, 2 players) 7s Kh Ac
Hero bets 9 BB, BTN calls 9 BB

As I dominate this board I feel I can exploitatively bet small with my value to get more calls from villain - or should I just bet large?

Turn : (43 BB, 2 players) 8h
Hero bets 35 BB, BTN raises to 71 BB and is all-in, Hero calls 36 BB

Once he does call, I feel he is very A K heavy so I try to get big value, he shoves. Obviously i call with bottom set here as he may do this with alot of 2 pair and occasionaly weird Kx. My question is could you find a fold here? People at the micros underbluff soooooo badly that sometimes the range of call flop, shove turn may just be pocket 88's?

River : (185 BB, 2 players) 5c

BTN cashed out 16 BB for a fee of 0 BB

Hero shows 7d 7c (Three of a Kind, Sevens)
(Pre 55%, Flop 83%, Turn 91%)

BTN shows Ks Ad (Two Pair, Aces and Kings)
(Pre 45%, Flop 17%, Turn 9%)

Hero wins 178.5 BB

Opinions on line and other questions?

Never folding ott ... we are only beat by AA / KK that decided to only call our 3b IP (imo V should be 4betting AK pre here). 88 should fold flop so would discount that imo.

Well played pre / nh

sizings are a bit off, go 1/4th otf and then even halfpot should be enough ott to set up a river jam
you dont want to bet that much if you have a bluff

No chance you're ever folding turn no

I wouldn't call this I'd just 3bet it pre all the time.

I think this sizing is fine in general but with this specific hand as an exploit I like going bigger, any pair of aces is never folding. The more I think of it you should probably be going bigger with everything to set up a turn shove that isn't silly.

You are never folding the turn btw. Even if villain only does this with AK, KK and AA.

As I said about sizing, you are leaving 36bb on the river with a pot of >100bb if villain calls, doesn't really make sense.
