shady 2 pair, need turn and river help
 

25-50, 3 limpers and I make it 300 with K9s on the button. 3 callers. YES. 1st plays well and is running super hot, he has 22k, other is tight and has 6, I have 12.

Flop Q92 two tone

Checked around

Turn K (2 flush draws present)

1st guy leads for 800, 2nd guy calls, I make it 2400. Both call.

River 6o

Both check to me. Action? Turn play?

Check behind

AZK,

What about your image? Do others think that you could be raising preflop with something like 10Js with 3 limpers?

It looks like the either of them could have a set( 99 or 22 very likely) and missed a check raise on the flop.

1. Do U think your 2 pr is good?
2. Can you sell the nuts here?

Re: shady 2 pair, need turn and river help
 

I think that you will see 222, KQ or a turned straight from the first limper too often here to make a raise on the turn, or a bet on the river, worthwhile. I am fairly confident that Player two has a pair of kings with some sort of straight or flush draw.

The only alternative to checking behind is to bomb the river, and I think that works only if you have been overbetting your big hands on the river.

Re: shady 2 pair, need turn and river help
 

My image is pretty solid. The first limper is pretty loose in terms of calling raises preflop and limping early. I think the 2nd caller would have raised a set/straight on the turn, so I'm not so worried about him as much as I am about the first player. The first player would likely 3bet the nut on the turn or call with a set. I can't really decide whether or not he would lead the river with a set.

Check behind. There is a good chance both could be drawing, but if not, I think the only hand that calls your bet is KQ.

turn is standard?

Probably, but I would not be happy getting called by both opponents, which in turn leads to checking behind on the river.

how come no one is talking about the flop check behind?
