Flopped the nuts, but....HELP! ($25NL)

by **MTPaid** » Thu Nov 09, 2006 12:22 am

[Jh] in SB. 5 limpers and both blinds see the flop. I flop the nuts.
[Th]

[Qd][Kh] P = $1.75
Great, but this house is too crowded. I gotta start kicking some people out. I lead for $1.50. 4 CALLERS!!!!
I have only one of them covered w/ $28.90 left.
Turn [2s]

P = $9.25
8 hearts
3 Tens
2 non-heart Queens
3 Kings
all are potential disaster.
2 non-heart Aces
3 Jacks
can give me the split as well
That's 21 cards I don't want to see, or almost half the deck. What the hell do I do here?

either lead pot or CR all in.

either one is fine. highly likely someone has 2 pair or better.

You think risking a check around is ok here? Turn is a complete blank. It's possible nobody bets this? I don't know what type of draws I'm up against. So many cards can hurt me and I may get more than 1 caller. Isn't over-betting the pot an option. I really don't care if I just pick it up right here, should I? Of course, my thought process changes if there are less players in the hand.

I lead for pot, and pray someone is raising...

I overbet the pot. All folded to the button who was the biggest stack at the table. He took a lot of time before folding.

I think you have to check this.

At $25 just play your hands. At higher levels I prolly check raise this turn, at lower limits I bet this turn. With 4 callers in this pot with all broadway cards someone has 2 pair, a set, or a smaller straight. I over bet the pot on the turn, or just push all in, you will often get called. Keeps you from making a tough decision on the river when one of the multiple scare cards comes off.

The only thing you really have to be concerned about is a heart.

Even then they probably don't have it...

its ok to check because someone will always bet here.

someone will have KQ or TT or J9 or will have limped with AA or whatever. there's no way that all 4 of your opponents check the turn.

jthe more i think about this hand, the more i like checking the turn.
