Default 6.50 Stars...BB catches trips and a ton of aggression

Nothing remarkable about either of the 2 villians...Can I fold this? Do you bet this flop or hope to c/r an ace?

Button (t2602)
SB (t1505)

I think leading-3betting all-in or check-raising with the intent of pushing any non-ace turn is okay here.

I wouldn't fold even with all the action. Plenty of players won't fold an ace, and you have a few to lots of outs if someone has a seven.

I would fold. You are likely against one ace and against a stronger 7, unless you hope that the board helps you.

wow what can i say? just call and hope to triple up ..

it's 900t or 4000t

it's a nice flop for the button to pretend a 7 and bluff some chips his way, anyone with an A has to fold

I think you have to call and curse them for not raising you out preflop if you lose. This could be As getting overexcited, and there are lots of ways for you to at least split if the case 7 is out there.

I might find a fold if I'd seen the minbet, minraise, get it all in with the nuts pattern from one or both before, or maybe if I knew one of them had never been known to limp an Ace preflop. Our kicker sucks. Still, it would have to be a killer read.

I'd usually lead this flop. You're unlikely to get much action if there are no As out anyway, but someone might try to rebluff you. c/c should set off warning bells for a thinking villain, and c/r might shut down the action. This depends a bit on your opponents and your table image, but I lead a lot of flops so I think I get best value leading here.
