Message: [QUOTE="Weisssound, post: 2351676, member: 103488"] Answering now before reading on. Weak-Tight UTG. Raises up with two callers and you on the button. So we can assume Villain is probably raising with a big Ace, decent to monster pockets, or maybe KQ/KJ on the bottom of the range. The call behind tells me the other guy has a similar range and doesn't have the chutzpah to isolate his opponent. The second call behind that could be almost anything, suited connectors definitely fall into the range, as do speculation hands like pocket twos or whatever. Your range is even wider than that. You could be coming in with virtually anything which makes you Johnny Dangerous. However, I'd say the flat kind of eliminates hands that don't play well in multi-ways, so big Aces are likely out, monster pairs are probably out as well. Flop: 7 7 5 So this is pretty much the WORST flop the villain can see. A middle-strength paired board with a straight and flush draw. Check, check - makes sense for big aces, as well as big pocket pairs. Third guy checks, so he definitely missed the board. You bet $20. It's a little lite into $35, not sure how to read that. It's about 2/3rds so it's safe to say it looks like you hit the board in some regard. Anything from 56 off, to 89, to 10Jspades, to something nutty like 87, or even A7 is potentially in your range here. UTG calls, which makes sense since there's a lot of draws and you could be betting without having a made hand. Still, I actually favor a fold with anything except an over pair. That I might get it in with a check-raise try to figure out where I'm really at and scare off drawing hands. The other guys fold out. If they had something they'd be staying in or raising. 4 of clubs on the turn. Check and another 2/3 pot bet. The tank-call is silly. Tank-fold please. If your hand isn't made already, which it very likely is, it's even more likely to be made by the river. I think the Villain has TT-AA. Anything else really needs to be out of the hand. What's worse, is I really can't narrow your range any more. The card is only reinforcing the drawing line and the bet is exactly the same ratio. 8 of spades on the river. He might as well have folded without checking. Anything that wasn't there got there. Here's my conclusion: I think the Villain had something like a pocket overpair to the board and just couldn't let it go. I can't really say what you had. You could have missed a draw of some sort and STILL bet here exactly the way you had, or you could have had a made straight, made flush, or set of 7s. Pretty much the only thing I can eliminate is quad 7s because you be looking for someone else to make their straight/flush. Any and everything is getting value. So this is the spot where if I have AA, I'll fold to a bluff and pat myself on the back for not being a calling station. [/QUOTE]
