Just sat down, no PT so not really any reads on anyone. Table stats looked juicy though with average pot around $1.25 in .05/.10

Should I raise preflop?
Should I bet the flop?
Should I call the river?

CO: bets $0.10
Hero: calls $0.10
UTG+1: folds
MP3: folds

I think I might actually bet that turn with that bet being the last piece of money I put in the pot.

Also, a preflop raise probably isn't -EV, but I wouldn't usually encourage it.

i wouldn't raise preflop. the pot would be pretty small, so i'd probably check/fold as the pot would be too small to draw to your ~3.5 outs

check pf, dont raise. check the flop- MAYBE call a bet depending on the action. most likely check/fold. id bet the turn if the flop is checked through.

I'm almost always raising 88 here, so 77 can't be much more marginal. I didn't say it's a great idea, but you probably break even doing it.

Do not raise preflop.

Betting the flop is not bad, but the pot will be small and you are way behind any ace. No set, no bet.

your second hand is tough because your position sux. preflop, i think is fine. i usually bet out and get called down by an A fearing their kicker.

once it's checked through, i'd bet the turn and river blanks. you'd probably see a weak Q here i would guess.

1 overcard is a pretty damn good flop for 77. Just because an A is on the board, doesn't mean someone has it. I think I like checking this flop, folding to an EP bet, and raising an LP bet. I would then lead the turn, fold to any subsequent raise, and I would check the river if anyone called a turn bet and evaluate depending on the board.
