I bet 300 into a 600 pot from the SB. I hped to be raised by a draw, but in fact got two callers

the two calls were immediate, by two loose bad players

I have  7c 7d

the board is   

 Kc 8s 7s

There is 1500 in the pot

I have 5100
UTG 10K
UTG+1 10K

The turn

Not what you were hoping for, you wanted a non spade non straightening card


You are first to act on the turn

Over to you

Id bet say 600. Representing strength. Hoping for calls not raises. Then hoping for a paired board

I would bet out 50% of the pot again, to represent the flush.

Oh boy Oh boy, okay so if you check here someone is sure to bet out wether they hold the flush or not even a player holding the lone As is going to bet here , would you call?(or raise). If there is a bet then the pot is going to be pretty large in relation to your stack. hmmmmmmm I'm just about to get on the road so I will have a think on the way . I think a check call here at the moment depending on the size of any bet. That may change tho.

unusually, i fully agree wit  m3.at least u retain control and momemtum,which should hold other to in check slightly.

Bet 2/3rds of pot.

Go for a check raise. If they both check behind you then great, if they call your reraise you know where you are and know what to do on the river.

Won't check raising commit you to the pot though?

You raise will have to be chunky otherwise they are obliged to call which will create a big pot and also make your stack small in comparision to it...

Yes you're right. I didn't stop to think about that, i was just trying to figure out what they were holding.

Although i wouldn't like doing it i think i would just have to bet 1000 here and hope for a result. Given their stack sizes and player types i would expect a call from the  As though. Makes your river play difficult i think.

I would make a small bet about 200, If they have the made straight or flush chances are its a flat call. then you see the river and you might fill up.

Bet 900

I can't allow a cheap card to a drawing hand. Bet 1,000.

I find these multi-way hands with drawing possibilities very difficult.

check with the intention of calling anything up to a pot size bet, anything bigger i may fold.

As I said in part 1 I would have played it differently, however this is  now a scare card. You have two callers a good chance that one was drawing. I don't want to commit myself here but a check is weak, so I lead off with the same 300 and see what happens or if any strength is shown and by whom. If they were drawing to a nut flush I doubt that they will raise you all in here. They will probably call and let you hang yourself on the river. Therefore I want to see that river cheaply and see if I can fill my boat.
