Would it be bad to bet the flop here? I think that's what I would do. Is it my leak?

I hope this was a joke... if not then it's time to read ToP again! [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Nothing wrong with betting the flop here but I think a check is a little better with that many opponents.

I like the way you played it. If the MP3 or CO bets the flop I'd check raise.

I don't understand the reasoning behind check raising with middle pair. Could you explain?

The thinking is that a lot of LP bettors will bet with a lot of hands that Hero can beat here. He can raise partially for value but also to force out others.

I wouldn't, this many players it's hard to know if you're best. You can and get called, you still don't know if you're best.
