Confused about 73o
 

Villian is 27/7/1.35. Haven't seen him do anything unpredictable or crazy. I think every street is questionable here. Am I making any serious mistakes?

Looks like SB slowplayed his A, had a PP higher than 77, or ties you with a 7. That or a complete bluff. What's your read?

I'm tempted to not care about the pot.

At best your splitting, and it's more likely your losing.

Me too, but SB should have raised pre-flop with anything that beats hero here.

I'd hate to get pushed off the best hand here mainly because it would suck for villain to start check-raising me all day.

Not much of a read at all beyond the numbers. I think a bluff is equally as likely as a hand that beats or ties me.

I'd be 3-betting this turn with the idea of taking a free showdown.

If it's 50/50, then obviously call it down. But I think OPs beat more than 50% of the time, and the pot isn't big enough to go after.

Folding to a cap?

ooh, I didn't think of this, but I think I like it.

Do we fold to a cap though?

These are my thoughts exactly. Anyone agree/disagree?
