I often just bet out with a big draw multiway in an unraised pot. Just to get in bets.

Turn you gotta check.

Why?

Its unlikely they'll fold, you're out of position, you don't have equity 3-way.

if this was HU, I would consider betting as I think you could get the villian to fold 1 out of every nine times, maybe even more than that. This being 3 way here, I lean towards check calling

[hicherbie]

umm...
because they arent likely to fold and you probably dont have the best hand?

With superdraws in a multiway pot, you want a lot of bets going into the pot on the flop; if you're 1st to act you should start off the party and bet.

A wise poker player once told me, it's much easier to get in 3 bets on a street, if you put in the first one.

Edit2: I (of course) cap the flop here.

Edit: On second thought, I check it since the board paired, and 2+ of your 15 outs are now "tainted".

[baronzeus]

Nevermind.

This is my first time at the PP 10/20, so I had a little stage fright. Stupid excuse, but it's the truth! I was thinking, "Bet! No wait, they're smart up here. Let's be silly and check."

I was 2x wrong.
