Bet the flop, fold to a raise.

I can see this line, but I'd like more detail on why we'd fold to a raise?

Call the river since only one overcard to yours came and it was only a seven.

Even if one guy has total air and the other has a 5, which is being optimistic we're still calling 1BB to win 3.5 and that's best case scenario IMO. A 7 is well within BB's hand range after he calls the turn and leads the river.

For all you omgsupereasyturnlead guys: I probably shouldn't have posted the river action since the 3rd ace falling on the river biases responses a bit IMO but I'm not sure if betting the turn accomplishes a whole lot. Better hands call, worse hands fold. The only worse hand that calls has might be a PP lower than 5s or 2 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]. I opted to check the turn because we let a worse take a stab at it and incorrectly put money into the pot where they might fold if I lead. Plus, getting raised here on the turn is also pretty bad since we're likely drawing and want the field in, not out.
