Default Flopping quads choice

I have 77 on the button. Party 15/30 OK table. MP is about 30/10, CO is 17/8. Or something like that, neither are terrible.

This is one sitation where I think it would have been easier to be in early position and bet .... the preflop call is to try to get the blinds in, in case I flop a set. Otherwise I will try to outplay the others or get out cheaply....

Preflop
MP limps, CO raises, I call, blinds fold, MP calls.

Flop
775 giving me quads.
MP bets, CO raises, I ... ?

If I cold call here it looks highly suspicious. If I raise here it looks highly suspicious. But I only have 2 choices. (assuming we are not folding here [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img])

What do we prefer?

A call will look like either two overcards or a pocket pair that you are unsure of. Nobody is ever suspicious of quads.

Call. You don't want to loose MP. With two seeing the turn there is a better chance you will get some action. You know none of them have trips so a 3-bet will make tighten them up on the expensive streets.

you've got to milk this one a little. I am raising the turn. Who knows, maybe 55 is out there waiting to cap the turn and river.

I think you might be leaving out the very real possibility that a call will look like A7s as well. Certainly in most party players coldcalling range, especially the 30/10 guy.

I still think you have to just call though.

the three bet looks alot like your going to try and buy your way to the river. Who would 3 bet with the nuts here...that is why it is the option I choose
