Default 10\\20 6 max. Multiway pot

Having recently moved to 10\20 from 5\10 im finding it difficult to play these multiway pots. Its amazing how many people will call 3 and 4 bets cold preflop in this game and im struggling to find the right level of aggression. Normally i would raise the flop and go from there but this line doesnt seem to work well at this level because unless i follow through on the turn someone will invariably smell the weakness and bet.

I think I raise this flop and take the action from there. It is a very big pot and your hand may still be good. Given you just called you have to check the turn, but I think the river is a clear value bet. I am pretty sure you are chopping at worse unless you are playing against very passive players.

UTG and BB both checking the turn scream, "I don't have a pair!" and I don't give button credit for a pair (unless its wired) since he CC'd 3 pf. I bet the turn when checked to. Given that it got checked through and everyone checked AGAIN, I bet the river.

What hands that you beat are calling this bet?

I think this hand was played fine. A turn bet is close, but against so many opponents I don't like it much.

Bet the turn for sure. Make them pay to draw against your no-pair nuts on such a ridiculously raggy board.
