Re: 77 in small blind.
 

Grunch....

Without more of a read on him, it's hard to say how I'd handle the turn. Could you safely bet/fold it? If so, I think that's the way to go on that street. As played, I check/call on the river.

I like the pf and flop.

You have to bet the turn.

Re: 77 in small blind.
 

OK. We all agree. bet the turn.

What happened?!?!?!?!

it's hard to believe none of those stupid overcards hit
the maniac's range...

so -- my guess is.... he had A5s clubs.

Re: 77 in small blind.
 

His hand ended up being AQo. I had him till the river.
So a bet on the turn was the correct action clearly. After reading all your responses (which have been very helpful btw) I think a bet/fold on the turn and a check/fold on river were the correct actions. if he raises the turn he has me beat and if he raises the river i figure 100% im beat. But you are all probably right i think he hasn't improved often enough on the turn for me to check. It was not correct to check the turn.
