Default A7s multiple questions

BB is solid,
UTG is on the loose/passive side
CO and Button haven't made an impression but don't seem very agressive.


Party 5/10 6-max (6 handed)

Hero is in the SB with A [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 7 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

Preflop: UTG calls, MP folds, CO calls, Button calls, Hero calls, BB checks.

Flop: 9 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 8 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 5 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]

Hero checks, BB checks, UTG bets, CO calls, Button calls, Hero calls, BB calls.

Turn: A [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]

What is your plan?

Bet and let the fishes call you down with small pairs or gutshots. Very unlikely a "solid" BB bluffs into this many players if that's your idea.

Also I usually bet these flops. Figure the equity is good enough + sometimes you can win it right there + sometimes you have the best hand.

I think that the best possible line would be to bet and fold to a raise. If you were planning on check raising you are building too big of a pot with a hand that isn't that strong, and you can't check raise to isolate because of the position of the aggressor. Consequently, checking and folding is to weak. Therefore, I believe the best line is to bet out and fold to any more action.

fold to raise bad. gutshot plus trips plus better two pair good.

EDIT: also why can't we check call? personally I bet, but it seems you left check-calling out of the equation

When I said checking and folding is too weak I was implying that checking and calling might be ok as well.

That's what I was thinking.....either lead the turn or c/r the turn. My decision was to lead the turn... because I don't want the turn checked through or givin out freebs. And cr'ing is a little aggressive, but if so not by much. Plus if you are raise on your lead, you quite potentially have megaouts..... but I'd be lying to you if I did not say that Intended on showing this puppy down unimproved baring multiple raises (However that maybe the 10/20 in me talking).

Good to have ya back Rubes... both you and Dan.
