Bet/call. Wouldn't you kick yourself if it's checked around?

Agree with this. Also if we check it might be close to a checkraise if we keep the 3rd guy in. My guess is our equity is great against everything but a set (3 ways)

Commerce 20/40. Good game. The CO is a new player who just sat down and posted his 4 chips.

A fishy EP limps, I limp in MP with Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. CO-poster checks, button limps, SB folds, BB checks.

5 to the flop. It comes down 8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 5[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 3[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].

Checked to me, I bet. CO raises, button cold-calls, button folds, EP cold-calls, I 3-bet, CO caps it, button cold-calls 2 more, EP finally folds.

3 to the turn. Turn is a T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].

Hrmmmm.... Bet or check?

Bet. Grimace if it's two more back to you or something but... well, it's limit hold'em and blah blah blah big pot top pair might be good don't check.

These guys tend to be a bit passive. Therefore, you are almost always behind. You can't protect yout hand by betting if you are ahead. This one doesn't seem close.

I agree. In a live game I check.

I would raise preflop, but once I didn't I just c/c here, it's borderline impossible for your hand to be best unless CO has A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]X[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

i raise pf most all of the time. i like the flop play. i would probably check the turn. if we could assume we aren't against a set with CO, based on button's play i think an argument could be made for betting.

I don't think it matters either way weather there is a raise PF or not, but this may help define the CO's hand a bit better. The thing is that he has just posted, meaning that he could be playing any two cards. I wouldn't be surprised to see an open-ender here.

Betting may also be good because may the SB will have a Kx heart and lay it down, thinking one of you has the ace. I just can't bring myself to give CO any good hand yet.

I think it really depends on your read on CO. Is he someone that bets draws? He could have AXs very easily. And button could have 67s. If CO has a set you're in a tough place, but is he the type to cap the flop with a set, or would he try to be cute with it? I think he's betting a draw (or A8), and now you're beating him.

Is button playing a strong draw straight forward, or slowplaying a set? Depends on your read on this guy.

I think your winning, so bet.

You are very likely behind the COs crappy 2 pair or a set as your typical Comm-20 players are going to be passive. Check.

Your equity is good enough to c/r 3-way but betting here in a 60+ game sounds much better than this 20 game.
