Looks good to me. If he has A4 or 46 you were screwed regardless of which line you took.

Raise the turn; there are going to be a lot of cards on the river that you don't like. If he three bets, call depending on how big his three bet is and you know you need to fill up on the river.

I usually bet the flop, too. I raise the river more too, to about 300; lots of 2 pair hands are paying this off.

I'm guessing you were beat after his 3-bet min-raise, though. Oh well.

I don't mind checking the flop at all but that turn brought all sorts of danger so I would push out a big bet there and end it.

Checking the flop is the only way to make some money with your hand. You must hope your oponent make some sort of continuation betting, to steal the pot.
But like they said you have to bet the turn so he doesn't draw a straight against you (hopefully you're not to late already).But proberaly you were because of this post. Or was the guy holding AJ

Thats stupid. The only free card Im worried about is the 5. I think the flop check is fine, b/c more often that not, my opponent is going to make 2nd best more so than Ill make 2nd best.

[lastchance]

Yeah, I bet flop or raise turn nearly 100% of the time.

I really like just leading the flop in position on this dry board. Most unsuspicious.

[ilya]

I agree with lastchance and Olu, bet the flop. Checking behind in a 3-way pot on such a dry board looks fishy. Plus, since you're playing against the blinds, it's quite possible that one or both of them has caught a piece of those rags.

[Chaostracize]

The problem with not betting the flop and letting someone see a free turn is that this board is draw heavy. I'm not betting with my 777 to get large action, if I do great, I'm doing it to protect my hand. The only hands that someone can catch that they don't have now will have you beat on the turn.
