Re: betting the river
Raise preflop. I smoothcall the flop the way you played it but it could be wrong. Bet this river, a strong player doesn't play a 3 or 7 in early position, the only hand I can see being played like this that beats you is 77.

Re: betting the river
Not raising preflop here is akin to burning money.

Re: betting the river
I can't understand why you didn't raise that river. The preflop raiser is very unlikely to have 77 (well he actually had 88)
I don't know about the flop raise. You may want to fold SBs and BBs possible gutshots but on the other hand you have a monster with good redraws even against a made straight. I would probably have smooth called the flop and raised the turn if betted into again. |

Re: betting the river
i agree that was an attractive option but with the two suited flop and a couple of rags i was hoping one of the blinds might reraise with two pair or an open ender

Re: betting the river
i personally don't consider JJ an automatic raise against two early limpers.as it happens i got no extra callers but when you flop a set the more the merrier.
