Default Did I miss a bet?

20/40 LO8, live action game, 6 handed. UTG+1 is a calling station, not likely to fold .. MP tends to LAG.

Hero (Button): A [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 2 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 3 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] T [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]

UTG folds, UTG+1 calls, MP posted, Hero raises, SB folds, BB calls, UTG+1 calls, MP calls.

Flop: 5 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 7 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] K [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]

Action checks around; Hero bets, everyone calls.

Turn: 5 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]

Action checks around; Hero checks.

River 9 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]

Action checks around; Hero bets, everyone folds.

I'm pretty sure I like this line, but does anyone bet on the come when they think everyone will call?

I wasn't worried about a FH because it is highly likely that anyone in this game that was made on the turn would have bet out.

i take your line as well given your description of the opponents, chances are to high that especially the calling station has kings up, or even an ok low with a mid pair and isnt going to fold it here, and you'll just be spewing bets... the reason why i often to bet this turn, against ok to decent opponets, but not good ones!! is that quite often they call the flop with a low draw and perhaps somekind of pair somewhere, by betting the turn you will either get them to fold a naked low draw, or far more likly it will set you up with a perfect opportunity to steal the pot from them when the river comes high and they'll be forced to muck a better hand then yours!!--this play seems to work well for me against okish passive opponents, however if u have a bad calling station in the mix.. i would highly not recommend this!!!

Truthiness - Yes. Bet the turn.

You like most of the cards in the deck on the river, some more than others. If I counted correctly, you like about 30 cards and only don't like 14 cards. It's true that most of these are for only half or a quarter of the pot - even so, you have three opponents who have checked.

Bet. Definitely.

Have fun in Vegas this weekend. I seriously considered taking you up on you offer of ride sharing. I love Vegas. But it turns out I'm stuck here tomorrow. Anyhow, good luck.
