15/30 going for the overcalls

[Slimm]

I play shorthanded 95% of the time, just getting into the 15/30 ring. I generally have to restrain my natural aggression, but did I overdo it here? Do you bet out on the turn? First orbit, no reads.

I don't usually post on mid/high, but how can a hand have 8 players if it's at a 6 max? Just wondering...

?? very strange. I guess a typo or problem with hand converter.

As for the hand, you definitely want to lead out on the turn. There's really no reason to check here. First you run the risk of it getting checked thru. Also the guys with pairs and draws who would likely call the CO bet on the turn will just as likely call your bet. Add to this the cutoff may very well raise and you can trap the flush draws and such in the middle making it three bets.

you should definitely bet this turn cuz you're basically relying on the very last person to bet your hand for you, and there's no guarantee that he will especially if decides he doesn't like his hand that much anymore, i.e. overcards. having the turn checked through would be disasterous.

I'm used to very aggressive games. On this hand I was looking for the C/R - since I couldn't even imagine the board checked through, or someone in MP not betting out. Guess I need to velocitize, thanks.
