Re: Is a flop bet mandated here?
bet the flop. as DQ said, it plays different from there. But be clear about why you want bet here. You likely wont fold out everyone but can clean up some outs. you also have backdoor flush and straight draws (note that only straight draw is to the nuts - assuming its not a spade)
I dont really like the turnbet against 4 players since you lose your backdoors and because you didnt bet the flop your bet says "I have overs" (of course we are assuming villians are paying attention [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]). It should also be somewhat obvious to villians that the 4 wasnt likely to much help to you given your preflop raise.
yes, check behind that river
