Default two, two worthless draws, ah ah ah

5-10 game. 100 bb stacks, mostly. Mix of chumps and regulars.

An unusual flop, one where I was unable to come up with an instant plan. thought I'd solicit comments.

3 limpers, I limp in on the cutoff with J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], button limps too, blinds complete. 7-way.

Flop:

J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]


Checked to me. Top pair, draws to things that may well be no good. Two clean outs!

Plan for hand?

If i flop anything...pair, draw.. anything..and checked to me...i bet...str8 outta brunson.
So here, ill bet...then depending on the sort of action you get...figure out the rest..
Bet whatever u normally bet as a CB i.e 2/3 or 3/4 or full.

I'm as big a fan as anyone of betting when checked to, but this is an unraised pot and you have someone yet to act behind you, and with a hand that has the potential to both make a monster or get you in trouble. So with no real equity to protect in a multiway pot, checking and calling a reasonable bet is the line that lets you possibly make a hand to break someone, while not risking getting run off that opportunity either. All this assumes you don't think this is a hand worth goint to the felt with on the flop in a multiway unraised pot, which I don't.

why not just check your hand. Your hand is probably beaten at this point, and there are a big chance of getting check\raised here. Check\call, and you wont outplay yourself in this hand.
