Depends on whether you plan on binking a 7? ;-)

Seriously though, no, it's not a nice spot; at the very best you're racing, but you're almost certainly crushed here by a bigger pair. Especially once the man behind calls too.

You've still got c. 85 BBs, so you can undoubtedly find a nicer spot to get your money in.

I take it that from the fact you posted this, they both had AK and missed, or you would have flopped another 7?

If true, it's still irrelevant; it's NEVER a winning call over time.


Good luck to you, Don.

Aww thanks Springs. Sorry didnt say it quicker, im glad you said i made the correct fold. Its the first time ive ever really been in this kind of situation with a pair lower than Queens in which i would usually snap call and walk right into kings lol

i think ur iso raise pre isnt that great  77 is really marginal to play oop vs utg limper imo, i think just completing and ging from there is alot better, though if i was to raise i would make it larger to discourage a call as much as possible
