You played that hand the way you should, to get as much $$ as possible out of the fish. Sometimes you just cant help the poker gods - for we all know how cruel they are. I am a member of the World Amateur Poker Tour aswell, I think if you guys like to take this serious, think about joining, they have weekly tournament in pokerstars and freerolls in PS Ultimate bet and so on. Just an idea - registration is only $25 per year.

I have a knack for being able to defend a persons' play both ways. So you have AKs, standard raise, 77 will call this raise all day. Flop comes K52 You bet out alright, not too crazy here. With $8 in the pot, you bet out $4. His minimum reraise was a test. If he puts you on a hand like AQ or AJ, you'll most likely fold. This will even test you if he puts you on a lower PP such as QQ JJ or TT. I know his 7's dont beat that, but hes most likely thinking he can bet you out of the hand with the K on board. Your re-raise to $22 was a good one, and this is the time where your Opp. should have realized you weren't trying to buy the pot. He's get $12 in the pot, with another $14 to him. Apparently he must've thought his 7's were good against a hand that he put you on (AQ, AJ, AT). The 5 on the Turn was a good card for the 7's to see. He knows you dont have the 5. Your overbet on the turn basically seals it for him in his mind. If he thought his 7's were still good on the flop, the 5 wasnt going to scare him, and he was moving in no matter what. Thats why he was in the hand. He didnt push his chips in hoping for the 2 outer, he was most likely pushing in his chips trying to dodge a 6-outer.

thats a pretty fair and good analysis, but i would have to say this guy was just an idiot in reality, i won all his money like 4 hands later, he was a typical call station, it was obvious his 7's were beat and called anyway, which is fine cuz i knew he'd keep doin it and soon i had all my money back and then some.
