I reraise. Did he call all the way to river with pocket 7's? If he did, you made a buddy. If he has J7, you have that beat.

Call. He could certainly have a only AJ,KJ,QJ, or even two pair that is counterfeited QQ far more than the 15 to 1 you need to call. Hell, I would call if there was only 5BB in the pot considering all those possibilities. If you don't want to be raised then why not check the river and induce a bluff?

Is this why you posted the hand? You were curious if you should reraise? No, no, no. Just call.

He's going to have a 4 in this situation lots, ergo I wouldn't raise.

calling's not a bad option. consider; how would you respond to a 3-bet?

why wouldnt he raise with a 4 on earlier streets?
