Hero lost -80 First few hands of the match, no reads, seemed kinda fishy, raising 2.5x pre... Should of bet turn? His big river lead is kinda suspicious and pretty polarized, doubt he bets 7x or 3x this big. Easy fold?

I would probably just bet the turn to protect my hand and check back the river.As played, there arent that many hands that he could turn into a bluff. If I knew he was floating the flop oop with a wide range, I´d certainly call him off after my turn c/b (turn c/b would only make sense with the intention of bluffcatching).But without more information, his range is pretty much better hands only. 8x, 4x, 65, 66, 77, maybe slowplayed monsters; if he floated you with 76 he has a pair that he isnt betting this big, 65 has made the straight and A high/55/66 dont bet the river this big.Seems like a fold to me.

River lead out in hypers is

River lead out in hypers is very often a strong sign of strength. Bet/folding turn seems pretty mandatory to me.

I would bet turn as well, prolly only 1/2 pot. Then check back the river. The 4 on the turn seems like a bad card for us, however villian shouldn't have alot of 4x in his oop calling range. Its also a low dry enough flop that people like to float w/ Ahi or 2 overs sometimes.
