KQ on button - possible spaz villain

[Tugg]

I was reviewing the turn hand quizzes in SSHE and hand #8 is a kind of similiar hand and says "We have had several examples where you have had a marginal, vunerable,one pair hand and we have advocated raising the turn.This is a critical play that most small stakes players miss" I won't go on because I know you have the book, but it seems to stress that we don't have to be good even close to %50 of the time, and multiway in large pots to be aggressive and protect your equity. This play also interests me as I feel playing the turn is my weakest street.

Actually, I wouldn't mind if you went on. I don't actually have the book and I haven't read it. I graduate from college at the end of the semester and I put reading it on the backburner until then. And if I had a copy around it would totally distract me.

The hand goes like this. You have AhQh on the button. 4 limpers,you raise, BB and limpers call(12.5)sb. Flop is QsTs7h.The BB bets,1st limper calls,the 2nd one raises.the next limper cold calls.You call and everyone else does (11 BBs).The Turn is 3c. Its checked to the flop raiser who bets, the next player calls. Then it says you should raise .

The players and action in this example are a bit different, which I know can change everything, but the flop texture and turn blank seem similiar. Throughout these examples it stresses to protect vunerable hands in multiway pots with a raise.to "play aggressively and proctect your equity" and that a raise may cost you a bet or two, but not protecting your vunerable hand may cost you the pot.

I don't know if any of this specifically helps your hand.The consensus seems to be to call down from the turn and heads up I agree.But this players play is quite strange and it may be worthwhile to invest the extra bet in order to protect your equity and get heads up.
