Yo,
I played the following hand online (25 cent/50 cents) and I think I set myself up for being (semi-)bluffed out of a pot on the turn, but I'm not sure whether I really had a choice.
I get a free play with 83o in the BB, after two middle-position plaers limped in and the SB folded.
The flop is 678 rainbow.
I bet. I already knew they were not both gonna fold, and in fact both called. The turn is a K.
You guessed it, I checked here, the last player to act bet, and I folded what later turned out to be the best hand. (The bettor had a 4-flush plus an A, the second player had a 6.)
Should I bet the turn and fold to a raise? Remember, at this table my bet would have been called, most likely, by at least one player. What do I do then on the river??
Should I have called the turn bet??
Thanks,
Steven
