5-10 NL at the Borgata in Atlantic City.
My image is solid, as I have shown down all the big ones, and gotten away with some timely moves.
I am in SB and dealt 7c7s. I have ~1600. Two limpers to an aggressive tricky player in the cutoff who makes it 50. This player has shown down a wide variety of hands, and is capable of raising late with any two. He has ~2200 in chips. One of the limpers(tight solid older man) calls, and we are three to the flop.
The flop is Ks, Qs, 7d.
I lead for 75(anyone not like this), I think the board is dangerous and I think anyone with any type of hand, even perhap the PFR with a draw will play back at me. Both players call.
I get 2 callers to the turn which is a Jc. I check (good/bad check?) fearing the PRF here. He bets out 175. I call. Am I correct to assume his range of hands is very large here? He can have any spade draw, KQ, AK, KJ, QJ, AJ. JT, but I am a bit worried because his bluffs have been small, not in large pots.
Anyway I call and the older guy folds. Now the river is the Js. I make sevens full and I check. I don't want to lead because I think although he hasnt shown any big bluffs, hes capable of making one, and could even move it in on the river with a flush over the top of a weak lead. He bets 250, I call and he shows down AsTc for broadway.
Anyway, is this a weak check call on the river? Up to how much can I call? Leading is out of the question right?
Im new to the forum, so thanks for any opinions. The person I was playing with seems to think it was a weak check on the river. And I think leading out only gets me raised by a better hand, and I still may have to fold to a raise from a worse hand, flush or broadway.

Vs. aggressive/tricky, you should be looking for ways to get all of your money in here.

hmmmmmm - turn check is very interesting. it's something I would never have done in the past. I would have been thinking "I HAVE A SET, TIME TO GET IT ALL IN" and either led/3bet turn or c/r turn big. Since he WAS the pfr it is very likely that he has one of the bad four hands: KK QQ JJ or AT. c/c on turn puts you in BAD spot if an ace or ten hits or a flush card hits.
idk - tough spot (turn)
as played, I guess a c/c isn't all that bad on river since the reason why you c/c flop was because you thought you were behind to higher set or AT.
who folds turn?

so after leading turn, keep betting.. 2/3 pot.. you have to realize you will have hard time building pot by checking oop..and check raise is too strong 
i'm not too sure about river line.. I think I like a lead, but I dont know what I'd do vs a raise...is it too weak to fold to river raise?

the only thing you should be worried about is with 150bb eff stacks you may have trouble getting paid OOP.
Bet 125 on flop. This should allow you to c/r all in on turn comfortably. The J on turn is about as un-scary a card as can be.
Betting every street is fine too.

there are 2 ways you can play this hand imo. my fave line here is check raising to like 550 or something relatively big, then shoving any turn. you will have a full pot size bet ready on the turn. another option is to make a real bet, something like 135 on the flop, and seeing what happens from there. im not sure i like that as much though on a board like this. its super action heavy, so im check raising big here 90% of the time.
as far as the weak lead goes, in a LIVE game if the players are at least relatively solid, they can make it 350 or so over yer raise and fold to a shove with a hand as strong as KQ here. i think by check raising big you almost disguise the strength of your hand. so many people try to pull off a weak lead to get the villian to raise, then shoving on him. check raise huge, shove any turn, you get all the chips. holla
