Default Re: 88 debatable hand

i'd check raise the flop. you dont know for sure that soeone will bet out, but with 7 players it's likely. more often than not a late position player will bet out if it's checked to him and you can face the field w/ 2 cold. A bet out gives people reason to call since they're getting decent odds and nearly everyone holds overs (to the flop and your 88)

my line was not betting out the flop...
Also, if you check-raise you will have at least 3 callers here..
Anyway, what is the problem with seeing the turn cheap when you know a LOT of the cards that can come will be bad for you? This makes it easier when you need to throw away your hand without spending much.

at least 3 callers? are you talking about the specifics of this hand? i was talking in general, since our 'hero' opted to not bet or c/r but the weak c/c line. Sure here we'd have 'at least 3 callers' because of where the bet came come. But when we follow that c/r up with a turn bet we very often win the hand.
