There is NO WAY you can fold that. You already put in 200, 220 more to call. This guy could have basically anything, I put him on something like T5 or a low pocket pair. I wouldn't fold A hi in that situation, your odds are just too huge.

Leak.I would probably call also, but it's not automatic. If you read him as doing this without the 7, then call. If he is liable to only do it with a huge hand, then fold.

Didn't say it was automatic, I was just emphasizing on how easy of a play KT was. After betting the 200, it was even a more OBVIOUS call.
