Default Re: A7s defense

How poker-savvy is our opponent? This looks like a pretty standard free card play - but most lags will continue to aggressively bet their draws again on the turn in my experience. If he isn't well-versed in such things then I think he's either slowplaying a monster or has absolutely nothing.

If he's intelligent enough to make a free card play with diamonds or use the flop raise as a cheap showdown move (because you 3bet preflop because and he's worried about kicker trouble) then I check-fold.

Otherwise I probably check-call, expecting to snap off some bluffs or chop with other aces enough to make it worthwhile, and so I can find out what he would play this way.
