Re: What is going on here?
MP1 is probably making a pointless raise on the river with an ace.
I doubt MP2 is using this silly raise of MP1's to make a play. He probably decided to go into a slowplay when he improved to sevens full (or quads) on the turn.
Although your turn checkraise faces the field with two cold, your play does otherwise represent a 7 pretty well. And certainly MP2 has seen people checkraise the turn with monsters in a way that drives people out before. (Edit: Besides, the bet didn't come from where you expected it to.) If MP2 didn't have at least top boat, you'd think he'd be worried. And is the TAG really checking when checked to with a vulnerable hand in this four-way pot and then calling two bets to him without a 7? It's possible, but his turn play looks suspicous.
Or it does in retrospect once he 3-bets the river, in any case. I think you made a good fold.
