live 10/25, top set, river play?
this was one of the more interesting hands i've played in a while. 10/25 at foxwoods, table has been fairly loose preflop but not really getting out of line much afterwards. i have ~7k, which is about average for the table.
i make it 125 utg+1 with qq, five people call. most of the callers are fairly new to the table, although my image is probably tight/solid in general. flop comes q72 rainbow and i check first to act. everyone else checks behind me. turn is a 6, putting two diamonds on the board. 760 in the pot. i bet 500, one guy folds, and a guy who i think was jcmoussa calls. the three players behind him all fold. river is an offsuit 5. 1760 in the pot. villain has me covered, i have 6300 behind. your play?

Bet the flop. Doesn't have to be too big, but get some money in there. Stacks are deep and everybody will write it off as a cbet.
As played, I don't see why you'd do anything aside from just betting and at least calling any raise, barring live reads. I'd probably bet like $1500

I should say I'm tempted to c/r the turn, but I think it might look too strong.
OTOH, it is a pretty goofy looking play, and depending on who bets and the action, it might just look like BS.

[/ QUOTE ] regardless of the game... raising ep + betting into five people on a board with no draws where i hold a lot of the cards that hit the deck... can i really expect a call more than half the time?

Re: live 10/25, top set, river play?
The problem with checking the flop is that when you wake up later in the hand, your hand looks really obvious,

you need to build a pot regardless of what potential villains hold. [/ QUOTE ] I say forget building a pot, the flop check is fine. Giving them a card and getting guaranteed action on the turn is where your profit will come from in this hand. Checkraising the turn should be considered, but it obviously depends a lot on who acts after you.
