Re: RESULTS.
if we bet and he raises we're almost certainly beat and can safely fold.
if we bet and everyone calls they may well have appropriate odds to call, but it's better than offering them infinite odds when we have the best hand, plus we may fold hands that have outs against use (a weak suited ace, say).
[edited to add: this whole conversation is predicated on the likelihood that, given the action thus far, the button can be put on AA, KK, or AKs (perhaps AKo), and is therefore more likely to have unimproved overs than not, and the other two opponents could have literally called that flop with anything, but now, on a safe turn, are likely to be behind us, with the caveat that UTG may have a weak Q that they're afraid to bet... if we're called in multiple places on the turn, the river plan obviously changes)
