well b4 the flop you had the best hand, so no really he just got lucky, but he could of been holding bigger cards,
thats why i would of folded to a reraiser 9 times out of ten they usaualy have either one of top 2 pair

You got the money in good. As the hand was played you could not fold anymore. An option would have been to just call the first raise, but that would not have changed anything.

I agree with the others and normally I hate to go all-inn preflop cause luck is much more involved. With a full house on flop you would have been going all in anyways so its not bad.

Hmmm hard one as you are obviously a very aggressive kind of player so to be told you shouldnt press with this hand is possibly irelivent but , if you had KK or AA would you have won? Not by the looks of it so it doesnt matter what you had only that you was in the pot. So by that diduction should you have been in the pot / or should you have been all in... I dont think so but if the table was turned and you had the 77 would you have called? possibly . then you would have been the winner and there would be no post! Pushing with mid - low pairs is a tricky play as when you come up against say AK or similar you are still approx 50/50 pre flop and then providing they dont hit your odds increase as the cards come and miss your oponent. Pushing pre flop can be a disaster or a life saver... but this type of play can not be continusly profitable as it relys on others NOT HITTING, and thats not how to reap profit at poker.
