I expect you can use automatic reload on iPoker as well. Didn't play there for a while.
A7s is kind of tricky hand to play post-flop with without position, Also your kicker could be a issiue if you hit top pair.
Flop is a pretty tricky flop with top pair weak kicker and backdoor flush draw. I would just call. It's hard to get action of worse and against a flush draw you are flipping. Turn seems like a check/fold spot against a TAG.

Hi,

Against small 3-bet call could be fine even oop. When calling pre, just call the flop, you might have some showdown value. He already bets P50, so if he is bluffing, you could call turn or even value-bet river if it goes check-check. I would be more inclined to raise a hand like QJs here as it doesn't have any value as of yet.
