don't c-bet w/ air, OOP, in a multiway pot...

don´t cbet here vs 4 villains! don´t burn your money on the turn either!

This is a bad flop to cbet with so many callers plus being oop and leads to these type of positions where there really isnt a good play. I guess bet/folding is better than check calling

I guess I got excited about the double gutter and the fact that I raised pre. I'll check next time

Don't bet flop. I wouldn't call turn either, you're not getting odds to call, you're not likely to get paid if you hit, and you could hit a 9 and still lose.

C-betting this flop is fine IMO because we hit we kind of hit it

[/ QUOTE ]against 3 players on this board you have no FE and a 9 is going to be obvious so you have 4 outs that will get you money and they might not even do that if they can't beat AK.

If we are c/calling a bet anyway I don't get why we wouldn't c-bet

part of me wants to b/f turn (since it didn't complete any draws, unless he paired his Ax kicker on flop). part of me wants to c/c so we don't get pushed off our hand since we have the draw to the straight. so, it depends on villain's AF.
