Am I missing something here? A bad PF call puts him in a weak postflop situation... he flops BP + BDFD and is supposed to ChR? At least one of those opponents likely has a pair or a 10 outer against you and won't/shouldn't fold, so what exactly does one accomplish?

[Victor]

id say bet the river assuming david is a really good player and will fold pairs decent pairs to your cr. its a spot where you just arent bluffing. he will check behind a lot of weak pairs (proly up to a10) and obv ace highs. he may call with those if you bet given the big pot. of course i have no idea how david plays (tho i did play with him once)

bottom pair of sevens overcard kicker bdfd is a nice flop 5 handed. both raisers can easily have an A or be reverse dominated with a big K. also preflop raisers will likely put bb on a bigger hand for him to be c/ring them on that flop after calling two cold preflop. so this c/r might get it heads up, plus it will have serious deception value if hero has been playing sensibly so far. that's a lot of power from one small bet investment extra. the only good play on this flop is to c/r. calling is so weak you will get eaten alive playing that way, and folding is out of the question. donk betting is obviously silly. so the only play is c/r.

mike if you c/r and he 3-bets its an obvious fold, correct?

[Fianchetto]

I think the preflop call is pretty bad.

The river should not have helped your hand, so a checkraise probably works. Whether or not he pays off with a worse hand i don't know.
