1-2 NL on stars. I'm the BB, with over $400. CO has about $200.

CO raises to $6, I call with J-9 off, one MP caller.

Flop comes 10-7-7 rainbow. I bet 2/3 of the pot like I always do. MP folds, CO calls.

Turn comes an 8. Four suits on the board. I lead out with $20, and he minraises to $40. I call.

River is a brick. I check, he bets $90.

What do I do? I feel that I have the best hand more than 50% of the time. Villian is loose/aggressive and could easily have A-7, K-7, or 6-9.

sounds like OP thinks he has the best hand more often than not.

so, uh, raise?

I also don't like the bet out into a raiser and caller on the flop with just a gutshot.

Eh, I can go either way, also it's hard to tell but someone else is also in. Not clear if MP was a limper who was raised or not.

Probably depends on what you think of raiser.

Hand as played... At least call river. If you only ahead 50% of the time, you can't raise because he sometimes folds. If it's like 75-25 and you are pretty sure he calls a raise with worse (at least 1/3rd of the time) , then you could shove.

ootb = out of the blinds?

i ditch because i dont like being OOP with likely dominated garbage that hits big on coordinated boards almost exclusively.

but i also play against players whose raises should be respected.
