(Razz) bet a straight Seven on the river?

This is pretty similar to the river spot in stud high when you have UI AA. Typically, if you check, your opponent will value bet two pair but check behind with one. But, if you bet, you almost never get raised by two pair and frequently get a stubborn call from one pair that sees the big pot and thinks maybe maybe you're bluffing.

This case is a little different. Steve is representing a 6 low on 6th st, and the villain is not sure whether or not he's ahead even with a smoother 7. So he flat calls 6th and looks for a sign of weakness on the river. A check will tell him that he's ahead, but so will a hesitated bet, and it's quite likely he'd raise if he had you beat. Of course, he might play a smooth 8 the same way, hoping hero was only holding a 97 or 87. If he fired out immediately, it's probably a wash, but if he mulls it over he has to just c/c.
