i'm probably drawing to maybe 4 outs but more likely just the 2.

plus, i'm not convinced i won't have to put in 2 small bets by the end of this street.

Any 7 on the turn is likely to make the best hands, and that is the only good thing about this situation. But you just don't have good enough odds to make this call. Pot must be bigger and you must be closing the action or fairly certain that you are only going to put one bet in to even make this close. It's fun when you spike your 7 and take down a huge pot, but making these types of calls can be a huge leak.

so let's say i'm closer to closing the action than sitting right next to the guy who bet the flop and don't have to wonder about what the other 6 people in the hand are doing. do i fold, call, or raise? i suspect i'm missing some raising oportunities along these lines. my initial thought would be to call, but i could see where that could be incorrect.
