I wouldn't.

i don't like this with bottom pair and 4 players left to act. paying 2 bets to see the turn would be bad with a hand like this.

Into 5 players? I wouldn't. If there's a good argument for this, I would like to hear it.

This reminds me of another hand though where I held TT raised PF and 5 players came along. Flopo comes J-high-junk and the BB bets out into the crowd. I fold with a call in front and 3 people to act behind me. The BB won the hand with 99.

I think that person make a bad play as well. But bad plays work from time to time, that's poker.

I want to wait for a few more responses then I'll give my thoughts on it. This is not the way I would normally play it but I'm changing my mind.

I'll be very curious to here your thoughts on it. I just can't think of any good reason to bet this into 5 opponents from the blind.

No reads. Would it make a difference if I had A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 2[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] and the flop was Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 5[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 2[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]?

Check and Raise only option.......and that is crazy at that. I might cr if everyone checks and position bets. See what their numbers are and maybe raise to keep then guessing.

I think you must have some reads to justify making a play like this. got any?

This strikes me as a possible lead-the-turn-if-its-checked-around type hand. I'm not clear if betting the flop accomplishes enough in terms of information.
