Default Re: SB in a limped pot, 4/180

I don't think a flop bet really accomplishes anything here aside from bloating the pot OOP. We have middle pair on a draw heavy board in an unraised pot. Your opponents could essentially have anything and it's highly unlikely that this will induce all folds. I check flop and re-evaluate later.

I disagree. This is a multiway pot and villain's could have at least 12 outs against our hand on the flop (that is likely to be the best hand right now BTW). Bet the flop to protect your hand.

I look at this draw heavy flop, my weak made hand, the small pot, the largish stack I have, my reverse implied odds, the implied odds I'm giving everyone else, and the very low odds that I'll be able to pick up enough chips to justify all that risk and decide that I'll find better situations later and just check fold the flop.
