Villain runs at 11/7 I think this is an easy fold. Anyone disagree? If villain was a 32/20 do you call turn raise?

I wouldn't call the turn raise solely on stats of 32/20, it would depend more on observed hands, since some lagfish can easily spew pre and play passively post.

Easy fold with stats of 11/7. At 32/20 it depends on how much he is coming over the top like that.

Can't say because 32/20 doesn't tell you anything about how they play the turn after calling a c-bet. I'd fold to a 32/20 if that's all I had on him.

32/20 makes it more likely he can be doing this with QK/QJ but you cant call only on that.
Generally a raise on the turn from a TAG/good player is more then 1 pair. This looks most like 88 or hes raising with any pair not believing you. 88/any 5 is a huge part of villians range though.
However if you believe villian could be stepping out of line based on reads, I look him up here and fold to a big river bet.

Do you have any kind of feel for this person's post-flop game? The turn raise doesn't look right to me. Without having played with this player it's extremely difficult for me to say... how long have you been at table and what do you think your image is? If you call basically playing for stacks because he should shove river pretty wide. You'd miss value if he checks behind with QJ or something. But, I don't think those type hands raise turn much.

IMO this is mostly a five or a bluff. You'll have to play for stacks to find out. There are many circumstances where I will call, c/c (or re-eval in general) river without hesitation in this spot. If you don't think he's making a move very often then clear fold.

Good old Baluga thereom - TPTK is no good on a turn CR

Villian would have to be check raising quite a bit to make me want to call down here.
