Default Re: A5o in the BB

*grunch*
Flop - With TPLK on the flop I would probably lead out (prepared to fold to a raise)to see where I am. (If the original bet came from your left you might even c/r here to try and eliminate players with A, medium kicker).
Turn - You are not exactly betting on a scare card here; the 6 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] doesn't really make any possible hands (except 2 pair). So really what you are doing is what I usually do on the flop - finding out where you are. By waiting to the turn to do this you gain knowledge that your opponents were weak on the flop, but you also lose a bet. I suspect that (against 3 opponents) you are ahead here more often than not so I would rather get the extra bet on the flop than the extra knowledge.
River - Again the Q [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] isn't really scary here so I'd probably bet it out. If SB is solid like you say he will probably fold but if he is thinking you are typical low limit fish he might think you have a marginal hand that he can call down (say your 5's vs the 6's he just sucked out).
