Default Re: underpair in big raised pot, turn pairs bottom pair

I just realized that I was the only response here. Sorry. I'll elaborate real quick on check/folding. Your hand is almost never good here with so many players.

You might not even be good on the flop. Sure, no one raised, but since you've been running so good, why would they raise a king when they are intimidated by you?

On the turn, it really looks like someone just tripped up. Its hard to come up with 7 calling hands on the flop that don't contain at least one six.

The best possible scenario is that you are up against 88, 33, AQ, 44, 55, AJ, and a flush draw. Thats a monster parlay.

Also, I don't need to tell you that you only have two outs.

Here's the worst part though. Even if you are ahead, and you aren't, you aren't going to get maximum value on the river. Why?
"My opponents haven't been paying off my river bets"

Also, there is the fact that the flush draw can still come in on the river, and someone will usually have it here.
