I think I would check behind on the turn. With both players flat calling, you gotta figure at least one of them made a straight. Take a free chance to boat up and capitalize on the mistake they made by checking. As played, I fold the river. Edit : fold the turn.

Good bet on the flop when they both check to you. I would definitely check the turn though, if they were drawing that is terrible card. Check behind and hope to fill up. As you played it though I would have to fold to his all in.

Thanks. I think I bet behind on the turn because I would have expected one of them to lead out with the straight. Going for the check-raise there is pretty stupid, isn't it? (I fell for it, I know, but I should have checked behind on the scare card)

Yeah, I think checking the made straight there is a mistake, especially if they don't have the flush draw to go with it. If they have like Ac Jc Qx X then maybe it's a little better, but I would still lead, to try and get my stack in the middle, and charge sets/two pair hands.

It's low limit plo. You can hardly expect your opponents to be playing optimal strategy.At these levels (and pretty much any level til you get to about $50 or $100) just playing your hands in the most straightforward manner possible will usually net the best results.
