I seen opp, CRAI on the river on a previous double paired board in multi way pot with ace high.

I guess i could of raised the flop, but once we got it heads up. I wanted to wait to C/R the turn especially with no FD on board. The river made me a bit weak in the knees do I fold or call or raise? Is he checking the turn with a boat?

OK. I can understand, even if I don't like, allowing him to decide how much goes in when you've flopped the nuts but on the turn there is no way that he's two-barreling without a J and he'll definitely call and probably raise with any jack there so I think aiming for a cr is ill-conceived.

Bet or raise the flop, lead the turn. Dunno about the river. There aren't many 7s in his range and checking behind turn with a J seems unlikely so call.

C/r flop. River is easiest call ever, and I'd normally lead it.
