I didn't bet the turn because I was afraid Ax was just tagging along

on the river there were flushes, straights and Ax to worry about

I think it's fine because you aren't closing 3-handed, A flop and river hits alot as you say; chances are you beat one of them but not both

I'm torn on the flop bet - somebody better can speak up but I might've checked that through because of the A and too many reasons for calls; just seems like a hand you might not get to sd w/anyway. Still, not betting it seems weak so I don't know.

Seeing co calling river swayed me some - I wish you hadn't showed that [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

According to your stats, CO looks like a maniac postflop. Considering he didn't raise the flop and with him the only guy behind you, I would bet the turn and probably make that the last bet I put in the pot.

The only problem with betting the turn is if he raises the turn or bets the river when we check to him. If he truly is a maniac postflop, we could have him beat despite his aggression. This is the big problem with having guys like this to your left, and this fact alone makes this a bad table for you, but you probably know this [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I think after checking the turn, you've resigned to the fact that your hand isn't seeing a showdown. That river card just makes it 1000x easier.
