PokerStars Tournament, Big Blind is t30 (8 handed) Converter on pregopoker.com

UTG (t1910)
UTG+1 (t1210)
MP1 (t1950)
MP2 (t1390)
CO (t650)
Hero (t1440)
SB (t3450)
BB (t1500)

Preflop: Hero is in Button with 7[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 7[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]
UTG calls t30, UTG+1 calls t30, <font color="gray">MP1 folds</font>, <font color="gray">MP2 folds</font>, CO calls t30, Hero calls t30, SB calls t15, BB checks

Flop: (t180) 6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 2[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (6 players)
SB checks, BB checks, UTG checks, UTG+1 checks, CO checks, Hero checks

Turn: (t180) K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (6 players)
SB checks, BB checks, UTG checks, UTG+1 checks, CO checks, <font color="red">Hero bets t125</font>,

ok, the bet looks gross at first cause it's 6-way, but i figured a Q would've bet the flop, and a K would've bet the turn. if somebody wants to call with a draw, that's fine by me. flame away...

No way in hell.

I might NOT fold preflop, too.

SHOOT. Sorry, you're button. Nevermind. I thought you were UTG.

I would like a flop bet much better than a turn bet. i think your check on the flop basically feorfeits the pot as far as your interest is concerned.

agreed. Looks like you think no one had the Q, but the turn card is awful for you to bet on, especially with so many yet to act (lol, sometimes it helps). I'd play this is a standard set-value hand...mandatory PF call and mandatory check fold post-flop. Sorry to make it so cut and dry but with so many in the pot I guess it is (cut and dry).

I probably would have bet 120 or so on the flop, figuring a queen would have bet. No possible way I bet the turn. You know there will be at least one caller, w/ all the draws and high cards out there, and most of the deck will hurt you on the river.

I would check, but I think a bet is at least not too bad.

K-high boards are my favorite to take stabs at, as I think I've mentioned before. One thing working against you is that you're on the button, and plenty of morons will try to catch your "obvious" steal attempt. It seems like "a bet as last to act when checked to in a multi-way pot is probably a steal attempt and I'm going to stop you" is one of those ubiquitous concepts in LL hold'em.
