If you are not going to bet the flop, definitely bet more on the turn.

I would have bet the flop. If I were first or second to act, I might have checked with this board.

PLEASE BET THE FLOP TURN AND RIVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Seriously, this is not good. Also, call river as played.

[ship_it_trebek]

Yeah no excuse for not betting this flop with 4 other people in the hand. As played I call river.

Bet, bet ,bet, bet

Noone raised preflop so lead flop, lead turn. The only way to make money on this set is to bet it. Sometimes they call, sometimes they don't. You have five other's in a limped pot chances are someone is going to call and you really don't want to give 5 others a free card, your not that far ahead.


As played I want to fold this because I really don't have much invested and I can't think of anything, without a read, that SB leads here with that we beat except maybe a couple of 2 pair hands and I think those are a longshot.
