Is flop standard?

I actually posted on a similar hand (TPNK, way OOP, 4-5 in the pot) before. The general consensus was a PSB was standard, but who knows if that was correct.

At this level a PSB won't chase people from draws; and after one caller almost everybody will come along.

So we have a TPNK here and are building a big pot OOP; if we stop on turn then LAGs with draws can bluff us off our winning hand.

That's my concern.

I will usually hope to get flop checked and then lead a safe turn instead. That way the also don't give me credit for top pair - but may have drawn out on me by that time instead.

once you lead for a PSB on this board into this many players i dont think people will try to steal it from you w/ a worse hand on the turn too often. and if you have a read that someone is aggro enough to do that you can evaluate the turn and go from there

The obvious flush draw didn't come it, so I'd be inclined to think I have the best hand and make a river value bet of around half pot. There's 3 to a straight, but who's calling the flop with a backdoor straight draw (unless it's a combo)?

I might not like my 2 pair hand so much if I get check-raised, but I'll cross that bridge when I come to it. I suspect a lone K will call often enough to make it profitable.
