<font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, MP calls $0.25, Button calls $0.25, SB completes, Hero checks.

SB checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets $0.5</font>

What is the correct play here, do I c/c, if so how much of a bet? Is betting correct here? I hate these spots...

my standard play is to just c/c this 4-way flop, fold to too much action. Heads up i always bet 3/4. 3-way i sometimes bet.

Well you're betting 1/2 pot into a very drawy board. When I was playing $25nl I saw alot of these types of bets and instantly reraise you. Why? Because if you had a strong hand, you wouldn't let this pot stay so small multiway. But as played it would tell me that 75% of players that I see are bad (I don't know if you fall in there since I don't know if I've played you) do this .50 bet out here with that draw. My strat posts usually don't make much sense so sorry if I'm not clear here. But if you had a hand worth defending, I'd definately be seeing a pot sized bet here, not what you did.
