Big Pair, 3 opponents.. Wimpy 6th street check?

Granted I'm assuming someone already has 2 small pair. (99TT)

Why assume that? Could easily have just a straight draw or just one pair!

Look at the boards, our hero caught a card that could have easily removed one opponent with a bet ( which is what you want )

Most would bet that card, even if they didn't have the Ace.

No..

Do you always slow down when someone catches an Ace on 6th? In your 2-4 game I would worry about it more, not $20-40. Most reasonable $20-40 players wont stay in till 6th ( multi-way ) trying to spike an Ace. They would have been out by 5th.

I actually don't mean to sound too harsh, cause I am not too against checking in that spot.. I just don't like it with the boards / action in this instance.
