Just ran a Monte Carlo crunch on this. It puts the A7s in this situation at 13% pre-flop. And that includes things like runner-runners.
And, just out of curiosity, do you limp if you know that you are going to be raised? That was my major query really. As I said in my piece, limping is fine if you know that you are not going to be raised. So, assuming that you don't like the limp if you know that you are going to be raised, at what level of probability does the limp become wrong? Or are you happy with the limp even if a raise comes in behind you? This really strikes me as odd, as you seem to be playing only for a flush or trip sevens on the flop.
I am genuinely curious here (see my reply to Simon) because it just isn't a way that I play or that I could feel comfortable with playing.
