Bet the turn here?
PokerStars 2/4 Hold'em (7 handed) converter
Preflop: Hero is SB with J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]. MP2 posts a blind of $2. <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, MP2 (poster) checks, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, Button calls, Hero completes, BB checks. Flop: (4 SB) A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font> <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, BB folds, MP2 calls, Button calls. Turn: (3.50 BB) J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font> Hero checks, MP2 checks, Button checks. River: (3.50 BB) 2[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font> <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, MP2 calls, Button calls. Final Pot: 6.50 BB This may be a very stupid and clear cut play but I am new to playing online so I figured I would ask to make sure. SHould I check or bet the turn here? |

that turn does kind of suck, but I think it's a bet.
raise preflop. |

raise pre.
Bet the turn, any raise must have a K, then you can get away from the hand. If it's checked around and the button bets do you call? More than likely. Then someone with a king could check-raise behind you, and your still stuck a BB. Better to take control and bet. |

Re: Bet the turn here?
Given that MP2 was a poster, and the button essentially open limped, I really like a raise here. Your opponents probably have very bad hands.
The turn is an interesting situation. If you bet, almost all hands aside from sets and straights are going to fold. By checking you may fill on the river, you may induce worse hands to call a river bet... This is an interesting spot, I would probably check, but looking to call down an aggressive player. |

Re: Bet the turn here?
Limping here in a multiway field is fine. But with a poster and zero limpers, you have to raise this from the SB, even if you are out of position for the rest of the hand.
Bet the turn. You'll get smaller two pairs to come along. Obviously, you'll get raised by a K, but you can ditch that easily in this piddling pot. |

I would bet the turn and fold to a raise. The hope would be that your opponents would call down with a lesser ace and raise with the straight.
