    I think this is pretty much a 7 always. You're getting an astounding 5:1 to call but I have never caught anybody bluffing this way. I say don't pay him off and fold.

    Meh, that's the thing - I can't see what 7x he calls the flop with, he doesn't seem loose enough to call with a gutter with my sizing, and even the exceedingly unlikely 77 probably folds the flop.

    What better than QK checks behind the turn? Maybe AK on this flop, but then he doesn't raise the river surely.

    That said, wierd lines are normally for value.

    Well different stakes, different site. (Seriously jealous of getting to play on Stars/Tilt.) But on Bovada 5nl there are plenty of people who are never folding a pair to one bet on the flop.

    edit: In my games he could have any of A7 - T7, possibly 77, AQ like BC said, or even be slowplaying a set. He'd have to be a second-level thinker here to look at your line, figure your hand for weak, and purposely make a scary river raise. I would be shocked by that in my games, but maybe it happens in yours.
