Just dump this on the flop. Your equity is nowhere near good enough to justify (effectively) calling down.

Spot on.

The villian probably has at least a pair (in which case you're behind), or a draw with one or two overcards to the 7's (which would frequently make the villian a slight favorite).

Allright, so this was a bad time to showdown heads up (something im working on).

Let's make the board a little less draw heavy, say:

Flop: 5 /images/graemlins/diamond.gif 6 /images/graemlins/diamond.gif 9 /images/graemlins/club.gif

Villain bets, Hero...?

Is this now the time to call the flop, reevaluate the turn, and raise as neccesary? Or do we just raise the flop?
