What do you think?

I would have to fold. I dont think you are really ahead of anything except for a lower overpair. I dont think players at this level push such a scary board with the intention of making you fold.

Looks good to me...average villian won't pot the flop with a set. You are way more likely to see a straight draw/FD or smaller PP there than a set or AA. That and the pot odds with the money in the pot make it an easy call.

77 is most likely holding or 2 overs with FD

This is v good. I raise to $9 but it makes no difference on this hand. Make a note on villain. If he was on a draw with 12+ outs, consider not raising the flop next time. This is not the guys you make your money off.

I make the raise bigger. Other than that looks good.

[Bad Beat Maker]

The other guy prolly just had a huge draw going. If you put him on a huge draw (favored to win by the river) I would fold.

I think your initial raise should have been bigger... $1.50-$2 would have been more appropriate.

The $8 reraise also tells your opponent you can beat a pair on the board and his reraise pretty much says he can beat two pair or is drawing to something that beats two pair. A more cautious player would have trouble reraising this board to a lead bet. I think you get more information on a later street about where you are at in this hand as opposed to just guessing KK is good here and going nuts with a single pair.

I might smooth call his initial lead on the flop and assess the hand from there. It feels like you got outflopped on first look. Some background on the SB would be nice. He could be loose with straight and flush draw and just wants to get the money in.
