Hi!

Turn c/c is pretty bad since most weaker hands will take a freecard/cheaperSD and c/f is too weak for 1:9
So...you should definatelly b/f this turn. BU will often enough have worse pockets or some FDs(and his good Ax would very likely raise flop which makes them less likely) and BB has a ton of worse hands(FDs,SDs,gutshots,worse pairs,...)
In this case you should also b/f rivers in most scenarios.

As played I like your river valuebet.they have better hands very rarely but have many hands that will call your bet.


on such a draw heavy board in a multiway pot i think theres more value in betting the turn than in checking back the turn to call a bet or bet ourselves.

this also gives us the option to take a free showdown or value bet depending on how the board comes out.
