With complete air and no draws out of position, check and make the disciplined fold to the c-bet.

Flop Analysis

Checking our entire bottom-of-range air is mandatory out of position. We have no incentive to lead into the preflop raiser and must play defensively across our range.

Flop Analysis

Folding is clear and straightforward. Despite facing a small one-third pot bet, our seven-high holds no flush or straight draws and has virtually no path to realize equity on turns and rivers.
