SB bets, Hero folds...

Is this ok? Villian is betting into a field of 5 and I am drawing thin, if not dead.

I check the flop, your bet isn't gonna fold anyone, and the board is draw happy, looks like a clear wait till the turn to protect hand

fold the turn is fine, unless the SB is really erratic

I had an overpair and a backdoor flush draw. I'm not completely bought on the idea of checking the flop. Even if a blank hits the turn and I bet out no one is folding a flush draw, or OESD IMO. It's going to be difficult to protect my hand on any streets. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

Folding the turn in spots like this is something I'm working on. Just glad to see I'm not being weak-tight here. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Do not check the flop here haha. What if it gets checked through? Do you really want to give a free card away?

I disagree with bottomset's advice here.

it's just terrible advice.

if it gets checked through hero will be kicking himself.
