sirio,

what is hinted at in another post i think is fairly relevant.

while i'm not too much a fan of the utg raise with a tricky good player who has you covered to act behind you, that's what we've got.

the guy's good and aggressive, and sure the flop bet can be lots of hands.

i think that the turn bet is much less likely to be a call that's close to reasonable with 77. i think there's further problems because if you lead at the pot he's not in a terribly difficult spot. you wouldn't normally lead the turn with AA, KK, a queen, and he doesn't have a great reason to put you on a J. At least I don't see the check call flop lead turn that often here with AA, KK or a Q.
