Is a R (+ lead turn) better than call here? The board si paired, so harder to connect with therefore I should have enough fold equity and CO will have to pay 2 bets at once.
3handed you should try to gain foldequity by playing a draw - which has no showdownvalue - aggressively. in addition to the Q and 7, the J and sometimes the 9 might be an out too. so go ahead and raise the flop and bet the river. the good thing on a paired baord is, that even if he has got QQ, he probably just calls down due to being scared that you could have the 8. playing 4handed BU's bet shows more strenght and in case you face two players with 2SB, you should rather call in hope to hit your draw.
