A hand like this is folded 95% of the time but if it’s not too expensive, you should try and see the flop, remember the golden rule: if you don’t have a made hand then more than 3 calls and you should fold. This hand needs to be assessed relative to the board; does the kicker rank higher than the other 2 cards? Pair the ace and you’re left with a low kicker but pair the 7 and all you have is a low pair. Bet if this is checked to you, otherwise fold it.
