Fold. And just fold to the original bet aswell imo.
You have bottom pair no kicker, no draw, and maybe no clean outs in a multi way pot.
This really should be a no brainer.

Fold. And fold to the sb flop bet as well. If it was blind vs blind your in position then calling is better, here a fold should be quite simple.

Agree with the rest. Fold at the SB bet. Anything pairing has you beat. Save your money.

But this guy played bad that hand.
He didn't raised preflop and allowed me to play 27 for free.

SB ($8.49)
Hero (BB) ($2.52)
UTG ($5.34)
UTG+1 ($3.08)
MP1 ($1.58)
MP2 ($1.71)

On the flop, Hero has at most five outs against the flop raise - and that's assuming Villain doesn't have a set w Hero virtually drawing dead. That gives Hero about a 20% chance of making a hand - Hero didn't have pot odds to call the flop. Hero obv had implied odds, since Villain called all-in on the turn - but that just means Villain's play was even worse than Hero's play, which was terrible.

Seriously, this is so rare that this situation will happen there is no reason to call that flop bet. All that youre in there for is to try and hit trips or 2 pair and is rarely worth it. Even if you wouldve hit top pair with the 7, youre still looking at an ugly flop because of the straight possibilities.
