What would you do now and what do you think the other players hold?

or check-call

You're in severe problems if someone called with the nutflush draw though as they've know hit their ace and you only have 3 outs against them...

you have 2 or 6 to hit for the straight so thats 6 atleast.i bet again

Bet again. Represent the Ace. If he has AJ, well unlucky.If he does, he'll might make it cheap enough for you to draw on the river. I would bet $40

Oops, thought it was only a gutshot!

I would check, call.

I don't understand the flat callers here after the flop, means 2 things to me.
1) they are drawing too (which is a disaster flush wise)
2) they have trips or 2 pair and want to keep it low till the turn (no club, bet big and take it)

Personally i would have checked the flop to see what happens and called a moderate bet, i'm not committed to the pot yet.
Having bet the flop and got callers i think checking will induce a good sized bet (you have to fold) or betting and having to throw away to a reraise.
Again personally having invested $20 i am prepared to let this go now, you are definitely behind (you have nothing) and the flush draw may well be no good anyway leaving 3 outs.
Check.

At this point, I have to think that I'm in trouble. There's a decent chance that one has the draw, and the other has the hand alreayd, which means I'm pretty much stuffed.

My guess would that 1 has the nut flush draw, and the other is either slowplaying a set, or has a top pair, AJ, KJ, QJ, or TJ, all feasible holdings.

Therefore, considering both of these hands are going to call a bet, it would probably be best to check. If they do hold these hands, then I've got a relatively good chance of being given a free card, obviously depending on the palying style of my opponents.

If they did bet, I could try the checkraise, but I'm not overly keen. Being online, the nut flush draw, will still call. A made hand such as trips or 2 pair will also play. Even if they have just top pair, they could still stick it in, especially online.

Also, if you consider the arrival of the ace, even if they were making a loose call on the flop, this card could easily have hit several preflop calling hands.

So, in reflection, I say checkcall and hope for a miracle river.

If you're betting, it's because you're trying to push them off the hand, not to build the pot. I really doubt that they have folding hands.

i dont know, i am taking this month off poker (pretty much) so I guess I would buy you a beer and tell you to tell someone who cares

[Nem]

he could have 10/10, 99, 88 etc... you've represented strenght, he's called your initial bet, an ace has dropped on the turn, IMO you have to bet again.

There are two callers though.

Me and my reading skills...

[snoopy1239]

If there was just one, I'd probably bet out again, especially with my potential outs.
