I take a 5 way flop in the bb with A10o and flop tp on a danger flop. I think im right to lead and get two cold callers. what do u do on the turn, bet again?? If so how much? If i get two callers again and a blank looking card peels then what? I cant help thinking that the sb has flopped a str8??

Amatay ????

5 to the flop oop, i dont even start thinking about value there and often c/c and lots of the time c/f. depends who gazza is but i probs make it 1600 a lot too.

Why not bang it up to 1600 pf and take down the juice in the middle.

i have done in the past but these donks call and im left with a marginal hand oop in a big pot. even if i flop a pr i aint always happy about it with A10

With the pre flop action it's highly unlikely that you're behind on the flop to anything other than JQ or K10.

I would've preferred to c/r the flop. If no one bets for you then at least you keep it cheap if it goes wrong.

Alternatively make it 1600 to go on the flop. At 600 there's no way any draw is passing so you're inviting difficult decisions for yourself oop.

Also would've pumped it up to at least 1300 pf with A 10. All those limpers are just praying to be taxed.

The one thing i wouldn't do is turn my hand into a bluff by check raising, as this board does hit a lot of limped hands,so that (a) This doesn't work very often and (b) my hand has showdown value.

I think i lean toward Alex's line of going into c/c mode trying to get to showdown as cheap as possible 5 handed, if the action gets to hot we can simply muck our hand.

Looking at this I think lead the turn and see what happens. You'd have to give up to any resistance though, and I'd be checking the river if I got called.
