By the way I should add that this was fairly tight table with a lot of calling down and little raising. I noticed some of the better players value betting their hands, so A6s is an easy cold call here (though even in a typical loose game I'm fairly sure that calling is alright, as well) (so many people in).
On the flop I raise to trap the 3 callers and push my equity.
My real question has to do with the turn. I'm wondering if I should have raised it. I cold called to try to push my equity and let more people in (not that it worked), but I think I should have raised. They folded anyway, but I think a raise to buy a couple more outs (if I hit an A on the river) probably had better value than trying to let a few more people in. Thoughts?
