Villains in this particular hand are unknown, but it's a juicy BBJ table. The two biggest fish here folded PF.

I don't know what's going on in this hand, but you must be beat, right? BB must have QJ or J9 or QT or something that beats second pair.

If not, it's a bold bluff into three opponents on BB's part.

why did u bet the flop?
Fold the river. If BB were an absolute idiot, call. Unknown, fold.

Isn't this a flop fold?

Edit: Hmm, well those limpers did coldcall, but how many outs are you giving yourself?

What would be the rationale for anything other than a fold?

Because often I have the best hand, often I can take a free card on the turn if I want, and often I can get better hands (like mid-PPs) to fold. Why would "u" [sic] not bet the flop?

I was debating this too. I don't think it's horrible, but into a field of 3, I'd definitely think twice about it. The chance that someone has something better than you and will call with it is not tiny.

I think I am folding the flop after I get check-raised by SB and the limpers come along.

Regardless, the turn bet is the toughest part of the hand IMHO. Its most likely correct, but I expect at least one of the opponents to be in the lead now.
