Re: Live 6/12, A9s - keep betting the draw?

I take the free card.
The difference between this hand and the two hands I questioned about today (under "making myself pay for my own draws") is that in my hands I was heads up on the turn and actually felt there was a chance I could be ahead. In those cases I didn't want my opponent to draw for free if I was ahead, there was a chance I could win the pot right there (heads up) plus if I was behind I had a chance at drawing to the best hand. In this hand you are up against 3 opponents; I think there's a fairly good chance at least one of them is beating you. It's also unlikely that you're going to knock out 3 players with a bet. And getting checkraised would suck. I take the free card.
