Raise to 120 preflop if you have heaps of limpers on the table. on the flop bet about 3/4 of the pot. i woulde even call a shove.

[SuperUberBob]

Is this HH an error or something. Check/fold TPTK in a multiway pot. WTF?!

Bet the pot. Call a shove.

[Camdaman19]

Um...you do realise you have AK here right? You got to bet this flop, maybe fold to a re-raise...but only with a good read.

I've seen much worse posts than this check fold so don't think he deserves the hate. Theres a lot of players on the flop, increasing the chances he's behind to a straight or 2 pair.

That said, in a 4/180 (assuming thats the tourney), at this blind level, I'm always betting this flop and going all in to a reraise.

Sometimes players will have you beat, but not often, this situation is very +eV if you get your chips in.

I´ll try to be objective, which is hard enough - regarding the original post. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

No, just kidding ...

A made straight is rather - for not to say complete -unlikely. Why? The board is two-suited, would anyone slowplay his straight here, giving a freecard to five opponents? A two-pair is even more unlikely - for the same reason. Button could bet any Ace and any J here to evaluate where he stands. If somebody just calls, it is nearly certain that he is against a draw.

Said this - I assume OP to be ahead! A push would be the only clear reaction imho - to punish any drawing hands by the hardest.

I am glad I don't play this bad.

I agree with everyone here that check/folding this flop is a mistake. Please bet this flop. Yes, you're going to be up against someone with KJ/two pair sometimes, and you must get pot stuck if they get trappy on you -- and you're going to get drawn out on alot, but it's still +EV spot for you, so bet.

Also, you should raise more preflop, because you don't want to play AK multi-way like this. Yes, it sucks to stick in a healthy raise like 150-175 pf after the two limps, whiff the flop, then end up having to dump, but that's better than playing this six handed. You'll have a lot more options if you get this heads-up or three handed than you do now, where you're six handed. AKo does not play well multi-way.

Also, UTG looks like he just stacked BB, is probably feeling confident, and is probably limping with a huge range because he's got that "I just doubled up early, I've got 100 BB and double what anyone else at my table has, I'm invincible" feeling going. I'd want to get him isolated if possible. He's probably calling alot of overbets preflop here, so while raising to something like 160 PF might seem like overkill, I suspect it's probably very profitable. You should look at the hand history and see how donkified UTG's play was when he doubled up against the BB. If it was a weak/bad play, this is the guy you want to target.
