Hey guys n gals!

In this hand i call a 3bet with 77 in BB. The reason for that was that UTG never fold to 3bets and SB was my prime target in the game since he played extremely weak.

On the flop which looks good i had to make the decision either to shove it right away or to stay on the calling side.

I decided for a call since i am in very bad shape against every flush and every jx hand and even the ace of hearts. Besides, a call could leave UTG in the hand.

I turn the dream and see no reason to change my play, So i keep calling for the same reason. Sadly UTG folds. I do not want to see a heart now but i still can not shove since SB would just fold every bluff and whenever i am called i am crushed.

River changes nothing and i face a large bet. Again i just call.
