There is plenty of value to get, bet about 3-3.5bbs. No point of checking.

Maybe one of them has As or Ks. So you will have good chance for a call on your bet. So bet is very reasonable move here.

Check/call turn and check/raise river seems good to me given reads.

I'd be leading this turn a lot with other hands so I'd probably want to bet this some portion of the time too.

Good luck to you! :D

This.
You can try to bet min as well. Some players with relative monsters (lets say over pair) see it as a blocking bet and will reraise you. If they don't this gives you a larger pot to work with and it will look very bluffy as well when you put in a large bet on the river

The most reasonable thing is to put 3 big blinds, to fold to the reraise.
you fold to a raise with the nuts?^^


I‘d bet. With a lag villains we could x/r, but if it goes checked around we miss a lot of value.

If no one bet flop, they haven't tens, overpairs, middle pairs or sixes. I think UTG othen can have 2 broadway cards, button has some suited (not spades) trash. No one will pay you on your leading bet. You've got nuts already, with straight flushdraw. No need to fear anything and defend what you got. Let them bluff (then re-raise) or catch their aces or even triples. And look at their stats on turn, check more often if they are aggressive, bet sometimes if they are telephone stations.

The most reasonable thing is to put 3 big blinds, to fold to the reraise.
Are you kidding?

Your only risk is a superior flush draw, I would accept that risk and try to maximise the pot size by raising, probably calling a re-raise. Both on turn and river.

If UTG likes to bet rivers, build a bigger pot for him to try and steal. Check around on flop is probably a bad result, cannot let it check around again. Bet 1/2 pot. You will get call by hands like T8, T9, 98, 88, 77, 76, 75, flush draws, possibly raised by combo draws such as any Spade suited 9 or 3. On river you can check call any river
