To get any the most information possible on his opponents hands, he is going to have to check the turn, yet that will detract from his image as the aggressor in this pot, and take away what little chance he had of winning it with a bet. And didn't I make the point that I couldn't see myself making the call?
But lets not turn this into some kind of flame war, I don't want the thread to go to sh*t before I can see the results. |

Chips: 810 | | | how are you in a tough spot on turn? You dont have to be the aggressor in a 3-way pot on this type of board out-of-position. The only thing tough is if your flush draw is good and I dont think it is but if your not sure you can check/call depending on bets to see the river. |

That way, you end up paying the same ammount to see the river, and retain the image of a strong hand. |

QQ just isn't so strong with that flop. you still have to bet, but then i'd consider my hand worthless after getting two callers. maybe they're fish and they called with nothing...but if they're that fishy then isn't one of them possibly holding a 5? so you have a possible boat, any A, possible made flushes...i'm not sure what i've got beat here.
and no reads? is there any question what to do?
it's just not worth it, IMO, to lose more money on the turn here. i check fold. |

Check/calling is mroe effective in this spot to draw to your flush or Q and check/fold is fine too |

Edit: Anyone else as anxious to see results as I am? |
