Default 77 against a raise and reraise.

Everything seemed standard here, but I wanted to get some input and see if there was a possible better line. I was thinking that checking the river might be better here.

Button is 24/14.

I like your flop and turn play; though, I'm not really sure what worse hand will call you on the river. I may be inclined to c/c. I'm not sure about pre-flop, but I think implied odds make up for the few small bet deficit.

Yeah, the more I think about it, the river bet was very bad. No worse hands call, maybe AK, but I doubt it.

C/C on the river is the best play.

I may be a wimp, but I think that I fold this hand pre-flop. There are too many pp higher than 7 and at least one of the other players probably has you beat.

I think if the BB doesn't call, I'd be comfortable folding. Since he does, I think it can go either way, though I'd lean towards playing just because in most cases, it's pretty easy to get away from. Hopefully there will be more input on this as I'm curious myself.

You don't think a c/c on the river is better?

Well maybe. If you aren't betting because...

A) You don't think A-high will call - Yes I agree with you
B) Because you are scared - No, man up and bet

I'm not too crazy about the preflop call, but maybe ya because the CO could be on a blind steal and the Button might be trying to isolate him with just a calling hand.

So, if button or CO re-raises the flop we check fold the turn UI?
What if both CO and button see the turn and a club falls?
