MP3 ($402.50)

Preflop: Hero is MP2 with 6[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].
<font color="#CC3333">UTG raises to $12</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, MP1 calls $12, Hero calls $12, <font color="#666666">3 folds</font>, SB calls $10, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>.

Flop: ($52) 7[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 4[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 5[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font>
SB checks, UTG checks, MP1 checks, Hero checks.

Turn: ($52) A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font>
SB checks, <font color="#CC3333">UTG bets $20</font>, MP1 calls $20, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to $100</font>

I think it's very unlikely that anybody has a strong enough hand to call a raise on this turn. The problem is that I can't really rep anything, but my thought process is basically, "You don't have to rep [censored] if they don't have anything at all!"

I guess I could have A4, A5 or something. Also, assuming nobody has diamonds, I have odds to call for the straight. Oh, and does anybody bet that flop?

Thoughts? And please, spare me the one word answers.

Lately I've been spewing a bunch I think (which really isn't my style, but 2/4 brings it out in me for some reason), so I've been trying to tighten up. I don't be this cause I think I'll get called a lot by random [censored], and then I'll double barrel an overcard and get CRAI or something.

On second thought, like everybody, including PFR, checked to me on this board so I think I should almost always bet it. It's not like I can't chill out once called and I take it down probably 80% and up.

Yeah, even if they don't, they probably won't shove, and I got 8 friggin' outs in this bitch.

Looks fine because many aces will fold. If you get called you got good outs.

Not quite, but yeah. I have odds for the straight usually, but I think I can get a fold too often to just call.

What's your thought process behind checking the flop? With K6 I like a check, with 66 I think a bet is vastly superior.

Im confused. Why do you not bet the flop but when a turn card comes hurting your hand you choose to make a giant raise after several people show interest in the pot?

Bet the flop as everyone said. Once you're at the turn and you have to fold 2 players I'd rather just call.
