Re: Easy fold right?
[ QUOTE ]
Raising the turn seems like I'd be leaving money on the table considering I'm so far ahead. [/ QUOTE ] What hand that you currently beat folds the turn, but calls the river? A lone 8 or an A, everything else is folding to a bet on either the turn or river. Raise the turn, that is where your value is. This hand is the textbook case for it.

Re: Easy fold right?
[ QUOTE ]
I'd usually bet the pot with a flop like that in position but 4 limpers plus the big blind is too many people. Raising the turn seems like I'd be leaving money on the table considering I'm so far ahead. I thought about a river re-raise to 70 or so, to represent the ace since it seems like he has an 8 by his action, anyone like this? [/ QUOTE ] No, because he probably has an ace, in which case he's not folding, or he has an 8, in which case he'll probably call. I think this is a clear fold. Also, I don't like betting the flop in a live game with a lot of opponents. It's very likely someone has the 8 and it getting super duper tricky and slow playing it, or someone has the ace and is afraid of trips so they're checking but probably calling down, especially to a button bet after it checked around. I also agree that you need to raise the turn. For all the reasons (correctly I think) you didn't bet the flop are the same reasons you should be raising the turn--someone has an ace and won't let go, trips, etc. You have the best hand, get more money in the pot.
