he could be trying to slow play something or maybe even called with a pair and flush draw on the turn.I think a c/c is the best thing to do here.

River = AI... you can't possibly get away from this hand...there is 1,000 in the pot and you only have 575 chips left.

BTW - push the turn...the board is way to draw heavy to "value" bet your two pair.

I think I had 970 chips left. Also, Dosen't shoving 1000 chips into a 350 chip pot seem a little unreasonable?

I like pushing the turn to take it down (+35%) straight away.

Hm. I don't like shoving the turn with the texture of this flop. A pocket pair is a real possibility. JT is also a very real possibility -- some like to play JTs UTG. You have middle two pair with T7. Its a good hand, but I'm not sure its a hand you want to risk.

I agree with whoever said check-call.

Initially I thought "shove the turn" but then I went and read your hand history again....try to visualize the moment and FWIW I would of check called too.
