Check on turn cost me the pot?? If I were to bet turn, would it be 2/3 pot??

I don't bet this flop 5-way when you have 4 nut outs.

Turn check is mandatory, river fold is thuper thtandard.

OESD is junk on a 5-handed flop. Easy check on turn and even easier fold on river.

(ps: I'm baaack!)

i pot the turn. he's drawing more than half the time, and if he's good enough to fold a plain old oesd or idiot end of a wrap or something to a pot bet, i def pot/fold turn.

I bet on the flop because I held most of the cards that people would need to chase a draw on that type of board. I thought I could take the pot right there. Once I was called I thought soemone was trying to slow play a set or two pair combo of some kind.

betting the flop was a whoopsie, but when only one person continues and they just call, you have to bet the turn again. passive play in plo is almost always a draw, esp at lower limits, and when the next street bricks, you should bet again almost every time until people adapt.
