Re: Question on this play

My guess is UTG has 77. That's definitely a hand that could limp in EP
and call a raise with good odds, plus they should have a pretty easy
decision postflop. You made a good fold either way with the ace on
board
and no obvious draw that could have stood your preflop raise.
