Irie,

Given the info you've provided, seems like a clear call to me.

One of the following results actually happened. I thought it would be more fun to see what everybody thought was most likely:

The fact that you even posted this hand makes 1 and 2 go out the window I think.

You called and he showed 78...

But the call (the 900) is still the correct play even if you can put your opponent on a weaker 7 a huge ammount of the time because weaker sevens usually won't pay off to a shove, but you will get called by every hand that beats you.

I would say that given the line you took with this hand, it is far too easy for him to put you on a steal, and far too often he will only have a worse 7 here to fold your hand. I don't like a RR at all, but given your image, I can't see a fold.

Default Final results

I ended up feeling that he was most likely to have a pocket pair or worse 7 and that he would call for the remainder of my chips.

I pushed and he instantly called and flipped up his 4-4 and did a little dance.

It was awesome.

Irie,

I don't see how "His body language tells me that he is ready to play a big pot." on the turn is consistent w/ him possibly having a seven.

And what pocket pairs are you expecting a call from?

Think about his range of hands based on the action and how likely each hand in that range is to pay off a push. I think you'll find it hard to justify your push.

Word.
