This hand looks good to me. Nice adjustment on the flop after you suspect that the CO is just betting anything.

Would you bet the turn if it gets checked through?

Re: AQ overs and I\'m first to act on a five handed 265 two flush flop.
 

Flop CR is good.
Turn you gotta follow up on your flop CR especially with the 5 pairing.
Woohoo you hit your A.

No.

Id check/call the flop

and check/fold the turn, you have ace high and could be drawing dead.

hmm upon review i like the raise here due to the pot size.

Turn looks good

Nice river [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

It takes some stones to see the value in your hand here, and how best to protect it. I think you played this hand beautifully. Your finest play is rivering that A, but would you have bet had you not hit it?

Re: AQ overs and I\'m first to act on a five handed 265 two flush flop.
 

I don't understand the turn play: we need to spike a non-spade ace, or a non-spade, non-club queen to safely improve here, and even then we might be behind someone who called a 5 on the flop. So it seems like if someone else were to bet the turn, we wouldn't have odds to call.

Are we betting this turn as a weak semibluff to try to force both villains out?

Re: AQ overs and I\'m first to act on a five handed 265 two flush flop.
 

Yes, but I don't think it's a given that hero is behind here as well.

Yes, I was hoping they would fold of course, but my hand may still be best. And a lot of players like to autobet the flop when checked too, no matter how many players are in, so I'm not that worried about CO. Most players will not fold any overcards on flops like this one. I am beating a large range of hands that loose passives will call with here, KT,QT,JT,98, KQ, you know. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]
