So just what hand do you like in a raised multiway pot? Do you just fold 100% of the time there might be more than 3 way action for more than 1 bet?

I would play KK pre-flop with 3-way action for 2 bets, but once there are 4 or more people it's straight to the muck.

i assume this is to me? in a multiway raised pot IF an A flops you need to proceed carefully. it is a judgement call based on the post flop action, the players etc. i love KK but when an A flops in a multiway RAISED pot it is often beat. sometimes you lay it down. sometimes you play it. as with everything in poker - it depends.

i used to think this way too, I mean every time I had KK and an Ace would flop I would honestly muck it, but now I've found out that with experience there are times when its almost clear that the KK is the best hand on an Ace high board, it happens more often that you think; there are times when you can recognize this and I believe that in Mike l. hands at least one of them he won with KK if not both.

i consider betting the flop because the guy on his right who bet preflop, did not bet postflop, and he acted next. is the guy good enough to to check AK, or AA, i don't know, but i probably want to take the lead now. but i only said i consider it.

i bet the turn because no one has shown any strength.

Why do you consider taking the lead?

Are you joking? The flop check in hand one is not only good... it's MANDATORY. There is no other line thats anywhere close.

Hi mike,

I don't play these limits. Or you. Or your opponents. But I like the way you played these hands. I bet you picked up some extra bets.
