Bet river and pay him off

[Jamougha]

be tthe flop. Raise the flop. As played cr turn is OK but make it a bit more.

If you're going to call the river it's much better to push yourself. you are still going broke if you are beat but you get value from a K.

Reload and move on to the next hand.

Raise the flop up, with that many in the hand you're bound to get some action especially since you didn't raise pre-flop. Turn seems fine. I wouldn't check the river here, in this hand it doesn't really matter as it's obvious that the 77 is going to go all-in and you are gonna call but it would matter alot in other hands. Letting a weak K get a free showdown here is terrible. With this sort of board there's no reason at all not to value bet the river.
