TPTK early in MTT vs LAG

Do you really think your 7s will still be the best by the river card?

I don't agree with this logic. The ONLY issue is whether he's got the best hand now or not. If he does, he wants his chips in. He can't worry about what's going to draw out on him. There are a lot of draws his opponent could be on, but if 7's are best now, it's really unlikely he's an underdog.

That being said, it looks to me like villain has 88 or 99 and doesn't want to guess about the what hand you have when the turn has a good chance of being an overcard to his pair. I fold A7 figuring I probably don't have the best hand.
