Re: To fire again or not to fire again...
 

I think this is a pretty easy bet, you should bet 2/3 pot or pot, assuming you would bet that amount with a set or a flush here.

Results and thoughts...
 

I went through my options on the button. This is why I preferred betting over checking:

(1) I couldn't stand being bluffed out on the river. Like some posters have commented, there is that possibility. It is much more difficult for the opposition to bluff into a bloated pot into someone who has shown immense strength.
(2) I put one of my opponents on the A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] draw.
(3) I put the other opponent on a K, that may or may not have me outkicked. If that person has no [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], he must fold.
(4) I like betting[img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img].

I bet $99 into the $123 with the intention of folding to a check-raise, but they both folded. Of course if I had a set or a made flush, I would play the same way.

Thanks for your thoughts,
