Default Is this two pair even worth betting on the turn?

Big blind special, led right out obviously (this IS correct, right?)

Anyway after being called by so many people and the turn coming like it did, is it even worth betting? Also, if it's not worth betting than a check/fold is the only other option, correct? Thanks

Yes, bet on the flop is correct. Follow-up with a bet on the turn, but be prepared to fold to a raise. If anybody's still with you on the river, I probably check and call as long as it's only 1 bet to me, and i'm closing the action.

Meh, I take that back. If it's 3 players to the river, I check, and it goes bet, call behind me, I probably fold.

I think you have to bet here. You can't risk giving a free card to someone holding a single [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]. If there is a made flush out you may have four outs to a boat.

Flop: I lead out every time. If it was heads up vs. a tight opponent, I might consider a slow play, but you have 3 opponents here, and you are likely to get at least a couple of calls. You also don't want to give one of them a free draw at a flush or straight.

Turn: Fire again. No reason to assume anyone has a flush or J9. AJ would have most likely raised preflop. If you get raised on this turn, I call down without a specific read.
