Any reason to slow down here?

I'm probably gonna litter the forum a little today -- i'm in the midst of a nice downswing to start off and i'm not sure if it's the cards or my play just yet...

My question is about the flop/turn, and not really the river.

Looks good to me.

If you can't get at least one of them to fold on the turn, they have to be staying in for a reason. It's possible that one is on a [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] draw, but I'd save a BB here, as you will probably get called with a low PP or something like A4o.

meep:

I would most likely take the free card on the turn. You still have 2 opponents who called your flop bet on a completely uncoordinated paired board.
