I'm not sure how to play the flop below (especially with 4 players yet to act). Should I bet? Check/fold? Check/raise?

Any advice appreciated.

Thanks,
Justin

The answer is bets about the amount in the pot, as no one will put hero on a 2 here, and certainly at these low stakes players with any ace will call. Then bet again on the turn as long as no ace falls.

Don't even think about check-folding!! It is very unlikely that you are behind here as AA would have raised PF, and most people dont play too many hands with 2's so it is unlikely that you are out-kicked.
