Default Re: SB 77 flops set in big, multiway pot...I try to protect

With your position relative the preflop raiser, it's 6 one way & half a dozen the other as to betting or check/raising the flop. Actually, I prefer check/raising as you never know when one of the posters will raise ahead of you with his A7 or 67 or whatever, allowing you to 3-bet.

I think you played this hand perfectly. If you'd decided to check/call the flop and raise a safe turn, the third club coming on the turn ruins that plan (and probably means you have to lead the turn anyway, to be sure it isn't checked through). Also, keep in mind that while a flush draw will always have the correct odds to continue in a pot like this, you not only have a monster hand right now but also have a very strong redraw to beat a made flush. You should be looking to get 4 bets in on the flop every single time here.

I agree 100% with this statement, I wouldve played your hand the exact same way you did on every street. Nicely played IMO.
