assuming deep stacks and 4-6 players in the hand, how would you play these? let's say you have 79 or 88 on a 789 board with 2 diamonds. My initial impulse is to bet (pot size at least) to protect your hand, but I'm thinking should I check this instead and play this as a small pot? Of course you have outs to a fullhouse if a potential flush or straight card hits on the turn, but doesn't this thinking actually show how vulnerable the hand is?
