interesting spot. I definitely think you can raise here but calling might be better.  If I were raising I'd probably raise/fold as assume people aren't wanting to just pile wraps here facing a c/r so dry and we'd have bottom (or close to) of our gii range which makes me think call deciding on big turns and smh at small turns might be best.

i wouldnt ever raise here, calling is standard but folding seems best

od_jeb will always either have a set or a wrap betting multiway we obvs do terrible vs that range and this guy has us covered.

I quite like donking here, most probably folding to subsequent aggo.

Probably just fold it pre tbh.

Unless you hit a set you're never going to be happy as this board proves.

Would defo call pre, you are all but closing the action and KK is a great set mine cos you can make top set more often than not.

Calling the flop is stnd, raising to stack off is completely out of the question, raising to fold to a 3bet and bet/fold a lot of turns is fine/quite cool actually as a value/protection play, gets the hand HU and folds some equity out (8*** etc), with blockers to the 2 hands that can legit 3bet you'll prolly get a call of some straight draws you can make fold on the turn.

i think definitely 647 and 222 can legit 3b aswell

 i dont like calling here, i feel villain will bet like nearly all turns and we will have to fold a lot

222 yeh i'd agree, 647 would be a horrible 3bet imo, 6789 maybe but all the wraps (spesh non-pair ones) play much better as calls in tournaments i think.
