Villian is a standard TAG player. Hasn't gotten out of hand.. Is it right to call the cbet on the flop? After he checks the turn, what do we think of the river bet by him? Could he have checked the turn with a flush?

If Villian is standard Tag, Fold flop. As played, call, but you are probably beat.


IMO.

flop call is way too loose 4 way and I would never call the river bet. Hope he was bluffing and u won.

Fold u have mid-top, and are drawing to a backdoor flush at best, and you are beat on the river.

Fold the flop, I seriously doubt he's firing into this many players with worse. I fold river too, looks like he got scared on the turn which is understandable since every draw got there. He then realises hes prob still good on the river and takes you to value town.

By the end of the hand, his line looks like AK (no heart) w/ a value bet on 5th. But I would most likely fold PF. If I called, I'd wince &amp; call flop bet &amp; fold if villan bets if no J or diamond hits on turn.
