flopped a full house

[chopchoi]

I'm CO w/ 33. 4 limpers already, I limp, button raises, blinds fold.

Flop is 4 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]3 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]4 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]. It checks around to the button, who bets, everyone calls. I thought about raising here, but decied to wait for the turn.

Turn is 9 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]. It checks around to me. I'd like to go for the check-raise here, but the board is scary, and there are a lot of players in the pot. The button might not bet.

2 questions: 1) should I have raised the flop, 2) Sholud I bet the turn or go for the check-raise?

Turn is

Bet that flop, you'll get enough people on straight draws/flush draws/over card draws to make betting worthwhile.

You should have bet the flop and you should bet the turn.

Checking the flop isn't all that bad as long as button is aggressive and you decide to c/r. Check-calling the flop with this many callers sucks.

I would have to be 100% sure button is betting here. The flop getting checked through with six players would be terrible.

Betting the flop is retarded. You're just letting button raise to blast away the field

Check/raise and trap the limpers.

On a dry flop like this, you can expect overcards to bet fairly frequently. They'll also raise a bet frequently. Overpairs are betting always.

I disagree even if button raises you very likely to get some coldcallers in a six way pot that has 16.5sb in it. The pot is big your position to th pf raiser sucks just bet and start building a pot. I still think letting the flop check through with six players is worse than betting and having the button raise.

I agree, betting into the PF raiser is what you do when you want to thin the field
