Everybody Calls

[RacersEdge]

The hand history wasn't sent somehow, but here's the hand:

Blinds are at 15/30, I'm UTG with 9 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 9 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]

I raise to 100

EP calls
MP 1 calls
MP 3 calls
Button calls

The flop comes:

5[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 5[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

I bet out 2 BB to see what's what:

Call, call, call, call.

Turn: 6 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]

Now what? Do anything differently - just limp PF?

2 things -

Stack sizes?

You bet 60 into a 545 pot and want 4 people to fold?

My stack and 3 of the callers in the 1000-1200 range - the MP3 had about 3000...

or raise - calling doesn't tell a whole lot..

If you are not comfortable with the situation, you can check/fold. You didn't win the pot with your preflop raise, and you didn't flop a set or an overpair, so I wouldn't be thrilled with the situation. There is a good chance someone has a J or an overpair. Since no one raised your microbet on the turn and a rag hit, you might make a real bet on the turn. It depends on what your read is.

Edge,

I agree with Betgo here. You can easilly check fold/check call this. Calling doesn't tell much here, but then again, you're not really forcing them too. They could call this with overcards, a weak J, a five [img]/images/graemlins/shocked.gif[/img], 77-88, JJ.

If there were less players I would say fire out a meaningfull size bet, but based on the number players and their calling station mentality you could have problems.

Definately check the turn and see what ensues.

You need to bet more on the flop if you want to know anything. Betting 1/10 of the pot is basically checking.

Make a strong bet on the flop, if you get called on this draw-free board, you probably don't want to put any more chips in.
