Looks good. A lot of your outs are tainted and the pot's not too big.

You guys don't think we have the best hand on this flop a decent amount of the time? Is it because of the tight coldcaller? I'd bet it without a better read on the button.

I think we have the best hand here a large percentage of the time as well, although lately I have been looking to find more spots to check the flop instead of making a continuation bet 100% of the time. It is 4 handed with a tight coldcaller. So basically all I can say is that I think its close either way.

Lately I've been looking for more flops to bet 4 handed and more flops to check 3 handed when I miss.

bet the flop since we are often ahead here. we dont want to give free cards or get lead into on the turn. folding button is a huge plus. easy fold to a raise.

Bet this flop!!

It contains no flush draws.

It contains only 1 broadway card and it's the 2nd crappiest to boot.

It contains no realistic OESD and only a remote chance of a wheel gutshot.

Basically, there are a lot more reasons for your opponents to fold to your flop bet then to call it.

If you are ever going to fire into 3 opponents on a flop that missed you then this is the flop to do it on. Fire again on the turn if it's HU.

I don't think it's that bad. As a matter of fact I don't think it's bad at all
