Raising the flop?

[/ QUOTE ]

Why can't we raise the flop here? I'd raise it as a bluff on this board and I don't want to always just call when I hit a 7. Metagame? I'm raising for value/protection cuz he doesn't have me beat on this flop a huge % of the time 3 handed.

I don't think I made some stellar play here, I just want some discussion on pros and cons of raising flop. That by itself is good discussion.

Raising the flop is very, very good for shania. It's good that your flop raising range isn't polarized, but from an equity standpoint getting the money in with your hand is really bad.

Think about the range he 3bets AND calls a shove with. That's the real problem with your play. The raise is good, but I fold to his 3bet.
