I might raise the turn here and fold if he reraises.

Your bet on the river is way too big.. You got your nuts, you don't want to scare your opponent away, you want to value bet.

all streets played well, a shove here isnt a bad way to go, i think that a 9 and possibly 2pair/set would call. athough a small valuebet of $2.75 or so could be another way to play it, i dont think it makes much difference which line u choose

detonum - y r we raising the turn? I doubt we're getting any value out of a worse hand... calling turn and then c/c river puts in basically the same amount of $ as a turn raise, so wen ur beat, ur basically losing the same amount of money, but wen we're ahead of a hand, the raise will scare them off

I'd Cbet the flop to get a few others to fold. (4 way!) Definate str8 board on the turn...

[detonum]

Because there's still two others in the pot and when you call they have better odds to draw to a flush or straight. You do have a point though.

I don't really like c-betting into a coordinated board like this 4 way, especially not at these stakes. I'd say that takes the pot down &lt; 15% of the time.
