Flop: (5,50 SB) K♠, 4♥, A♣ (5 players)
BB checks, UTG+1 checks, MP1 checks, MP3 bets, Hero calls, 2 folds, MP1 calls.

MP1 checks, MP3 bets, Hero calls, MP1 folds.

Final Pot: 6,25 BB

My question here is about play on turn. Should I bet again if it's checked to me? I was not sure about kicker so I went to cheap showdown...

I'd raise this directly on the flop. He could also be betting out with a K, or even a gutshot (QT, QJ, JT). Also, the field is very large, and we have to protect our hand.

Then I bet turn, and maybe take free SD.

As played, I'd bet turn if checked to me. :)

hi kennyxx
i agree with amirapuato but i think you have to value bet the river if everybody just calls you down.
as played i bet the turn. your kicker isn´t great as you said but why should they check better Ax ?

Thanks both,

I played theese hands aggressively but lost some big pots by doing that. It probably affected my play. Maybe I'm playing too passive theese days...
