Hero ?

[Well_TiMeD]

i always check dont give mp3 a chance to get away from a bare ace or any of the other two players. let the pot get build by the 3 players behind u first

[0evg0]

i dont get it.

check and let mp3 push like he will 99% of the time.

The thing I question is being 4 handed on this flop. I'll post actual flop action later.

Check

[1st and 15]

If you did anything but check in this spot I'll find out where you live, then have some orderlies in white suits come over to your house where they will proceed to drug you and then drag you away to the loony bin. Are you certifiable man?

Here's where my confusion comes in. Hand history is at home, but pretty sure I have this correct:

At this point I have 2795 with 4875 in the pot. My call of 1500 and reraise of 1295 here gives everyone else at least 4.9 to 1 odds. I'm thrilled with the action but hate my remaining stack size because anyone with K [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] now may have an auto-call even with what I know to be 7 outs. It made me question not leading the flop to narrow the field with three apparently loose-passive players to be heard from.

[seke2]

Why do you want to narrow the field??? You don't want to narrow the field at all, you'd love to see a 4-way all in here because if someone has KdXd you're going broke anyway, and if nobody has exactly KdXd, you have a huge amount of equity in a 4-way pot.

I think leading the flop because it won't stop you from getting action anyway due to the texture of the board is reasonable. Doing it to "narrow the field" is ridiculous.

I'm not sure why your flop now says "Hero?" because there's no ? at this point. All-in.

Edit: wording

I pushed. Didn't want to put the rest of the action/results so it seemed easier to stop there.

[seke2]

My point was that there's nothing to discuss on the flop after all 3 players put chips into the pot, move all-in and hope nobody has KdXd and you can fade whatever draws are out there.
