Pretty big lead into this pot. Is this a bluff/7 more than it is a 6?

Also, the preflop raiser is left to act behind me.

What's my play?

with so many people in the pot it definately could be a 6, prolly 6-5, if i had the 7, id definately check, since ure next to act, with two players left to act, i might fold, if i was last to act it would be a little different, wat about 8-9?

Anyone like a call on the flop and maybe a fold on the turn?

Sure - the hand's too strong to just give up to a bet, which could simply be 8-7, and too weak to defend with further action.

Not a whole lot. What is the plan here.

1) Hope to catch a 9? I don't like this plan at all, and I'm assuming this isn't what you meant.

2) Hope to take it away from him if he checks? Let's assume that CO and UTG+1 fold. There will be $25.5 in the pot. How much are we betting if he checks to us? Villain's got $30 behind. If we bet around $15, are we folding to the push, or investing $40 into a hand that could easily be beat at this point?

3) Hope to check it down? This could work, but a good LAG is going to bet large on the river if we check after him on the turn.

We beat 8's and 7x at the moment. Overall, I'd just get ride of this on the flop.

I don't mind a call, but only because we have the PF raiser still to act, if he folds we are gold, if he pushes we might have to let it go. Also I don't think this is a 6 because many times people love to check the 6 there. It could be a pair smaller than 6 or maybe 77 or 88

I like the call.
