Re: Middle Pair
Well PF isn't very clear but if it's a 5 way pot and two have checked to you, thus leaving two behind I'd bet. You're up against loose players who are terrible and will call with A2o here all day.

Re: Middle Pair
I usually fold here. Someone usually (80% of the time) has a Q or better. So I'm drawing to max 5 outs, but I'm also up against a diamond draw.
I rarely find that I've folded the best hand when it comes to a show down. Might be that I'm folding to a bluff, but someone usually calls to the river. It seems like I get middle pair often. I find that when I semibluff with it I seem to be spewing chips. This only works for specific players that will fold on the river when they miss there over draw.

You get to almost close the action and peel one in a big multiway pot for one more bet? These are good things. |
