and do i relaly have to bet into that flop? hehe

[Jakesta]

Hand 1: I think this is fine.

Hand 2: I think you should bet the turn.

[HollywoodDB]

In the 77 hand, why don't we bet the turn? If we thought we were ahead on the flop, shoudn't we still be good on the turn?

[Rev. Good Will]

hand 1 - nice hand

hand 2 - flop bet is standard with a PP and one over card. For those same reasons, you should bet turn.

hand one, like everyone has said, is fine.

hand two i would have raised buttons turn bet before i folded to it, as you did. it's very possible you have the best hand right now and i'd raise to thin the field of overcards.

Hand one is fine

Hand 2 - DOnt bet flop then fold the turn to a lower card. I'm folding the river.

He's folding the turn because of the 3 callers on the flop, not the turn card. That being said, even with 3 callers I still think he needs to bet the turn. There are plenty of hands that they would peel the flop with that you beat.

[Redd]

Yeah, I think hand 1 is ok sans read of BB as the type who would take a shot on a scary river card.

As for hand 2: the way it played out, I'd agree with everyone that check-folding the turn is a bad idea. I think with 5 people still in, I'd be inclined to check the flop and see what action comes behind me. I'd be prepared to raise an LP bet.
