Pre Flop: ($0.07) Hero is SB with 7♥ 2♥
4 folds, Hero raises to $0.15, BB calls $0.10

Aaand as I said in the title we're going to completely ignore this (ambitious?) open raise and move on straight to the flop! Thank you! :f_biggrin: @nitrol, please try not to have a heart attack, the forums need you healthy!

Flop: ($0.30) 3♣ 7♦ 4♥ (2 players)
Hero bets $0.18, BB raises to $0.56, Hero calls $0.38

Standard c-bet with a top pair (Hahaha! xD Ahem. Sorry.) But then we are raised. I was thinking, "Dammit. Such a good disguised pair, what if a 2 hits?! It's a shame to fold to some random flop bluff. Well at least we have a backdoor flush and so a chance to improve. Plus it's SB vs BB, who knows what the villain calls and raises flop here with."

Turn: ($1.42) 2♦ (2 players)
Hero checks, BB checks

Oh my god! I thought it only happens when I fold preflop! At this point I want to keep the pot small, and so I go for a check/call, but the villain checks back! Did he bluff flop?

"Please don't be a 5, please don't be a 5, please don ---"

River: ($1.42) 5♥ (2 players)

"Goddammit!"

Hero checks, BB bets $0.88, Hero folds

Instafold even after the weak turn?

Man, you put me on heavy medications with that one. :)
I totally agree that we should fold after we get raised. Our kicker is ridiculous and so is calling and hoping to hit a 3 outer. :)
And now, the nag part - try not to get in these kind of situations. You can open this hand but vs a villain you know does not defend his BB.

Bet fold flop is OK. Nothing good will happen after call his raise (except of 7 on turn and river :f_biggrin: )

Without info I am folding vs his raise on the flop aswell

But considering it's blind war the call might be justified and if u hit 2nd pair on the turn DONK BET BIG is a must Imo , cuz X/raise sucks on such board and x/call is imo too weak.
