AT, auto-bet this flop?

[btspider]

All 3 villians are very loose (over 50 VPIP) and passive. On the turn, button auto-called.

I include the results since they help the read and I don't think anyone is going to suggest I go to showdown.

so, auto-bet flop? call turn?

I think that's a ten /images/graemlins/wink.gif but I probably would've played it the same time. Don't think there's much of a reason to continue after the bet on the turn, esp with your reads.

Not much point IMO with a 4 player field. HU or 3 way w/ position I bet, here I don't.

Also, you don't have AK.

EDIT: I just read the player descriptions and now I hate the flop bet. There is no point. Don't bluff passive players.

Fairly coordinated board and your overcard outs might not be clean. You'll like never take this down unimproved against that many players. I check and fold the flop.

Also... 2/4 in micro limits?

i post some 2/4 here for some routine SS decisions but micro-discussion worthy decisions. mostly i thought my bet was terrible, but wanted to be sure i wasn't results oriented. micro'ers tend to begin auto-betting flops with overcards after raising PF. hopefully this serves as an example of why its not always good.

bleh, AT.. i posted an AK hand in SS... and i'm getting used to 1600x1200 resolution /images/graemlins/smile.gif
