anyway the large pot size dictates everything here and this is not a time to take the free card. it would be correct to bet a lot of hands on the button when checked to here in an attempt to take control of the hand, clean up outs, clear out players, and set it up to be yours if at all possible. 33 is more than sufficient enough hand to bet here.

mike,

I'm about to zonk out (late late no limit is the nuts [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] ) but the way I looked at it is 33 with this board and situation isn't a hand that needs protection, it's a hand that needs to improve against what is likely to be (per Sneids) three or four opponents on the turn. The only good card for the button other than a three is a deuce. Everything else is likely to hit one of his three or four opponents.

The button clearly wants a free card here. He got a chance to get one and he should take it.

SB is very LAG, would have likely bet out here with any piece of the board. ... There's a chance he'll checkraise with overcards

Should he bet here or check?

Bet!

If the likelyhood of a field clearing UTG checkraise is in fact fairly reasonable, then betting might make a lot more sense. But it seems like a dream parley to me.
