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

You should be looking to get 4 bets in on the flop every single time here.

Yeah, your results on the flop were very good.

On the flop, you have the best hand and the best draw, and you want bets going in. I'd be more worried about getting money in than protecting on the flop, in this hand. Good draws (clubs, 98) won't go away, but you certainly don't mind if someone with Q [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] J [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] decides to peel, drawing dead against you.

If someone with a gutshot folds to your flop checkraise, then you have increased your chances of winning the hand. But you'd be missing too much value if you waited and tried to checkraise the turn. And you're not in such great relative position to be trying to protect anyway.
