I have 4s4d on BTN. Everyone folds. I limp in.

The reason I limped is both blinds are sticky station types so I don't want to raise the pot and go into a 3way flop. Looking to flop a set and value bet against calling stations.

I like to limp in position in this spot because I am trying to see the flop as cheaply as possible. I am not looking to play a 3bet pot or make fancy moves with only 44.

Flop is 4cTc7d.

Checked around. I bet 29c into 29c pot. (Pot is adjusted for rake) I expect they will call if they even have an ace or two overcards. To my surprise, SB raises to 74c. This is the first time in about 50 hands that I've seen him raise.

I have been on a very bad run. I'm off my bottom but lately it's been bad again. Just a few rounds ago I flopped a set of 5s vs. JJ but lost to a runner runner flush. So I've gotten timid and loser minded.

So against this check raise I'm thinking 77? I don't see a player like this playing a draw like this, so does he really have a set? But I can't fold. So I call.

Qs on turn. He bets $1.71 into $1.78.  Hesitant call.

River is 9h. And he bets only $2.90 into $5.20 pot. I have about $5 left here. I just called instead of shove... What makes me suspicious here is that if he really had a set of 7s, he probably bets more than that. He can't really put me on J8. And if I had TT I probably woulda raised him on the turn.  Or is he betting less to induce a call thinking I missed a flush draw? But he doesn't seem like that kind of player.
