With no PF raise and a 3 or 4 way pot, you have two cards in the blinds and complete/call. You flop something decent that isn't easily counterfeitable (let's say you have A6 on an A85 board) and check/call a bet. You check the 2 turn and your opponent checks behind.
The river is a 3. How often do you bet and how often do you check?

Sorry for the tiny pic, mussed up somewhere between excel, paint, photobucket.
Situations like this intrigue me - namely because I'm uncertain which is both more profitable with the hand, and less of a spew without.
I played with what I thought were reasonable assumptions regarding the likelihood of most of the scenarios. The %'s are CERTAINLY debatable. But given the inactivity on the turn, I think they are worth considering.
With THESE %'s, leading seems to be the way to go, with or without the winning hand (this was also the case making hero the showdown dog as well...not displayed)
Hero's chips in play: 20 PF, 60 flop, 100 (possibly) river
...playing the hand 10x's to sum %*chips
DISCLAIMER: I am nothing short of HORRID at math. Please rip me mercifully if something rediculous jumps out at you.
