    Default whats my move?

    PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.50 BB (9 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

    MP2 ($72.25)
    Hero ($54.55)
    CO ($50)
    Button ($63.55)
    SB ($50)
    BB ($51.30)
    UTG ($50)
    UTG+1 ($22.20)
    MP1 ($25.50)

    Preflop: Hero is MP3 with K, Q. CO posts a blind of $0.50.
    4 folds, Hero raises to $2, 1 fold, Button calls $2, 1 fold, BB calls $1.50.

    Flop: ($6.75) 7, Q, K (3 players)
    BB checks, Hero bets $5, Button folds, BB raises to $10, Hero calls $5.

    Turn: ($26.75) 4 (2 players)
    BB bets $10, Hero calls $10.

    BTW, I only called here instead of raised cause I am scared of a set. do I have reason to fear it? is calling the right move?

    River: ($46.75) 7 (2 players)
    BB checks, Hero ?

    is there something wrong with my posts? they often go so far down the line unreplied? I would appreciate any advice please.

    BTW, I dont have much of a read on villian, but I am sure that I have an immage of someone loose cause I steal blinds, have a pfr close to 9%, and I call a decent amount of c-bets

    this is a tough spot not to get aggressive, i would've re-raised that turn to get the information i desired. imo, i would've re-raised heavily on the turn and wouldn't minded getting AI, if forced to do so. u got top 2 on a non-scary board, do u normally play scared against a min-raise?? i personally think ur opponent has AK.

    His turn lead is pretty weak, so I don't mind stringing him along to the river. He has to be really good to check a boat/trips there, so I'd stick the rest in and try to get a hero call from him. Obv I could be wrong but I think you're ahead most of the time here.

    Pot is already $45 and his betting has been all out whack from the flop on. He check raised you on the flop which I can't make since of unless it's a set of sevens. But then he led the turn so weakly (still could mean set). Then checks the river?? I think you check behind and see what the hell he was doin the whole time.

    Just looking over it again...J 10 of diamonds maybe? What ever it is he played it like a moron.

    Default weird line

    I agree that villain took a weird line. I think if we were afraid of a set of 7's from the flop on, that river card definitely tells us that we have the best hand.

    Personally I would flat call his check raise on the flop, and raise him hard on the turn. If he has a set of 7's, then nice hand for him, I'll pay that off.

    I'd value bet $25 on the river.

    i agree with this
    Jman: every time the action is to you, it's an opportunity for you to make the perfect play.

    I think I'd go crazy not raising the turn. But I can understand why you didn't. I have a real hard time not paying off when I have hands like this. I would probably shove the river. Maybe he even has a poorly played AK, or maybe even a K9-KJ? Who knows with no reads.

    Pot is $47 and Hero only has ~$33 behind. If they'll call $20 they'll call $33, so just stick it in.

    very interesting, I figured I had the best hand at the river as well cause of the check. after all, I am calling whatever he is betting. I thought an all-in would scare him away, so I ended up betting another $10 to extract more from him.

    I agree, maybe a re-raise on the turn was the right move. I just get scared sometimes with some of these weird plays.

    results yet?
