i guess i should start by betting the flop.. i hate these flops, i always seem to see monsters under the bed and fear 2 pair.

should i bet ~$10 on the river?

all comments appreciated, thanks!

Bet the flop!!!

Raise turn for info.
As played I say 8-10 on river, and fold to any sick action.

Can someone tell me what reasonable "info" we get raising the turn here?

[evazan]

As played theres nothing wrong with just calling the turn bet. No need to build up a big pot on this wet board and your not getting value from anything you beat. After sb checks the river I'd bet about 8-10 and fold to any resistance. You have to bet this flop though.

[allaboutmyfetti]

h/u this flop is ok to check behind but 3-way pot I'd usually bet for protection. Villians combined could have like 10 outs against us (probably less, worse case they each have a unique 5 outer or osmethin) and I'd rather not give a free card to that range.

not really, turn call is prob fine in this spot

[crushednuts]

I can

The turn bet is relatively weak. The raise tells us whether he is slowplaying a flopped hand or not. I would much prefer a bet on the flop but, as played, I would raise the turn to determine whether he flopped a monster or not.

What do you do if you call his 3.50 on the turn and then he 1/2 or 3/4 pots the river?? call again?? he could easily be doing this w/ AJ etc. trying to pick off a worse ace or be doing it for value with a huge hand. If you are planning on calling a certain amount on the river, you should raise that on the turn IMO because aggressive poker is winning poker. I would not turn into a calling station b/c this flop is dangerous

Raising turn here is terrible. There is little to no value at all. Turn call is fine here. Raising for information is extremely overrated and in this spot it makes absolutely no sense to do so.
