Call and reeval.Also, raise smaller pre. 700 is fine.

Pretty much yeah...I find that min re-raises are semi-bluffs, at best, to chase out holding like AK/AQ or other suited Broadways, for example, that missed a flop like this. At the same time, you have to be wary of 99-JJ, as these are often holdings that will only call a PF raise in order to try and see a safe flop. With depp stacks it's probably better to RRPF with a holding like that, but a lot of people don't want to start spewing and might be worried about getting 3-bet.At the same time, 44-66-77 is easily in the mix, too...

I think a check raise or check call would be better on the flop.(even if he checks behind you are giving a free card on a small pot)By leading and getting raised it's really hard to play the hand afterwards. (you are probably checking the turn and giving a free card on a bigger pot)calling the flop and folding the turn just seems bad imo.

Who said we were folding the turn?

I would def consider throwing some chips in the middle if an A comes on the turn, assuming we only call (and not re-raise) the flop. If villain has a slightly better PP, there are a bunch of scare cards that can come on the turn that would warrant some kind of move.
