Well, I am not folding here. I call and if he has 67o or 78o I am paying him off.

What he said.

I call here. If he has a set/ two pair he's usually re-raising the turn.

I'd call obviously....the pot is now 57.50 and a call costs you 23...altho i would be afraid of the boat too...but thats not a hand you can let go...this is a case where knowing this players betting patterns prior to this hand would help immensely...

normally, i'd put him on 79...but since you are asking for advice, i'm gonna bet he had 67 or 78...a pocket pair for the house should've been betting preflop or a harder before this...

Uuuuugh. That river was a killer. This is one of those hands you were either going to double up on, or go broke on. You gotta call it though.

I'd have raised more on the turn, more for value than for him not to catch. That river sucks. I'd say he has trip 7's, possibly a boat, but I'd be more apt to put him on A7. I'd call.

The river does suck, but I think you have to call. He probably has 78 or 67, but there are other hands that you still beat (97 for example).

I agree with wench here...I would have bet more on the turn for value. If he still calls and hits a 4 outer, well then those are the breaks.

I think you're ahead here. I don't feel like he has a boat a lot of the time. Probably more like 2 pair or a set.
