What's the plan? Villains are on the laggy side.

Check/fold.

Against LAG opponents you might still be ahead here so I bet the turn. I call a raise and check/fold the river if I don't improve.

[Clinger]

Bet the turn, for value.

What to do if raised depends on which one raises you and who's still in the pot. If UTG raises I'd probably give up, and if UTG folds and Button raises I probabably call down expecting to beat AQ-AJ, KQ-KJ, and possibly a draw, often enough to be profitable.

I was also suprised the first time I saw stoves like this. How quikly AK loses value UI.

[Xylocain]

Um, there are a LOT of hands that you must remove from that calculation and many if not most of them are the ones that eats equity.

[OziBattler]

Sushi, yeah...you cant just assign random values here. but still....this not what I expected. seriously.

I think in this spot you need to show variation. Sometimes I bet sometimes I check.

The main problem with this hand is it's 3handed with what seems a fish (given his PF play) in the middle. If HU this is an ez bet due to the fact OTB will peel all OC's on that flop.

UTG may have caught a piece of the flop or has a small pp &amp; will showdown, but then again he could have K9/Q9/QJ/65/54 ne non paired Ace cept maybe AJ+.

If we decide to check, it's an ez fold if UTG bets. However OTB if laggy will bet his entire range on the turn &amp; you will not have a clue where u are.

IMO these are horrible spots &amp; I'm not exactly sure what the best play is however I like betting &amp; seeing what UTG does. If he calls I c/f river UI if he bets river, if he folds I'm going to SD against OTB.
