Default 77 against a mega-fish

MP1 is a mega-fish. He calls raises PF mulit-way w/ Q10o. Saw him raise KQo in MP to 3BB, shortstack re-raises to 20BB total and he calls. He also raises AJs UTG and then shows the table. I have only shown down one hand where I had 55 and outflopped AA and we got it all-in on a 2 2 5 J board.

I have 1200 hands at 200max so I dunno if this kind of overbet is the nuts or he flopped a set of deuces. I would not be suprised if MP1 played AA this way.

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $2 BB (9 handed) converter

UTG ($202.70)
UTG+1 ($226)
MP1 ($261.45)
MP2 ($122.60)
MP3 ($74.80)
CO ($50.30)
Button ($181.30)
SB ($96)
Hero ($369.20)

Preflop: Hero is BB with 7[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, MP1 calls $2, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, MP3 calls $2, CO calls $2, Button calls $2, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, Hero checks.

Flop: ($11) 3[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 2[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(5 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets $7</font>, MP1 calls $7, MP3 folds, CO folds, Button folds.

Turn: ($25) 4[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets $15</font>, <font color="#CC3333">MP1 raises to $252.45</font>, Hero?

A true Mega fish, will all in when they have a hand, they don't understand the concept of betting for value. Most mega-fishes employ this tactic, which makes me deathly fearful of their all in bets, and they are more often a made hand than a bluff,

I think you underbet the flop and it may have cost you, I put our fish on A-5 considering he probably also drastically overvalues A-x, I would have to fold this hand, and I be pissed at myself for my bet on the flop

Call. You don't even need to be good here 33% of the time, and even when you are beat you'll suckout 20%. This could be a straight but it could also be an overpair, set or two pair. Sure you're gonna see A5 sometimes but he's a megafish man, you gotta call.
