Here's an example of a spot which crops up somewhat regularly that i'm pretty unsure on. More of a theoretical question than advice on the actual hand.

£1-2, £100-250 deep roughly. Typical stationy fishy live game.

6 limpers to my bb (sb folds), i check  

Flop two spades

I lead out into the field (this is fine?) for £8, 4 people call.  

Turn

We? And what if the turn was a  ,  , or  ?

These kinda spots in live poker I think should be played based on who's in the pot with you, and your individual reads and knowledge of everyone's game. So if you have some good aggressive players I'd be checking with a view to call or fold depending on how the action comes back to me (I'd fold to not a lot of action btw) If you have quite loose players or particular very bad player in the hand I'd be looking to bet here purely for value (as you did in the example) from a theoretical angle leading this hand from time to time is good because on showdown it looks like a "strong hand" but in reality 6handed it's a pretty weak hand so a nice way to somewhat distort your flop donking range.

As played in the example I think the turn should be a chk/fold, KJ,QJ,JT and J9 even AJ people are more than more then capable of limping in with (much more than J7, J5, J4 etc) and obviously 66 and 22 is perfectly likely as well, you cant expect too much value from 67 type hands unless you have a specific bad player in the pot and there isn't too much that will bluff you. People just don't tend to get out of line in these multi-way pots and losing too many big blinds with a marginal hand in 6way un-opened pots is pretty bad imo.

I wish I had as much imagination as Pleno, I'm sure I used to back in the day before I became an old nit.

Should have seen me yesterday though, was like the old David was back splashing around like it's 2007 Smiley
