1/2 - AQ misses flop

[Landonfan]

Sort of a trivial hand, but I tend to get lost in these spots. Checking turn seems really weak, but is betting just spew against these villians? And if it is, are we just cutting our losses on every missed flop?

CO - 56/13/.65 for ~200
BB - 61/11/.37 for ~30

I think it depends on their calling % on the turn/wtsd. Alot of these loose gooses call every flopbet and fold on the turn if they didnt hit their A-rag/KQ/..

If they calldown very weak with low pair etc then I think against 2 villains check/fold is correct.

Bet the turn. I think i find a fold on the river.

I'd bet the turn 100% of the time HU, but is that really the smart play 3-way?

[tyler_cracker]

the turn card is a superbrick. i bet it as the last money i put in UI.

Betting this hand 3-way against two ultra loose passive players is the best play. They will peel the flop with all kinds of trash that you are beating and you have outs when they do have a better hand.

Agreed. This is a great card to bluff at because of how incredibly unlike it is to have improved anyone's hand. The best part is that they only feasible way it could have improved a hand is by taking what was a pair and adding a flush draw to it, but because you have the ace if diamonds, for this to be the case you'd have to be looking at something like K4s, which is pretty unlikely. I'd take one more shot at it and then reevalute. If they both fold great, if they both call, I check fold UI, if only one calls I reevaluate

Without reads, I bet the turn.

As played, I fold the river.
