    Default 25NL, Multi (and I mean Multi) Way pot

    Table had been going batshit insane for the last 5 minutes, so figured I'd jump in. And I got all I could have hoped for. So why does it not feel right?

    Ignoring my occasionally wrong gut, what do you guys do?

    PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.25 BB (9 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

    MP2 ($34.40)
    MP3 ($18.75)
    CO ($90.50)
    Button ($31.60)
    SB ($9.75)
    BB ($24.95)
    UTG ($18.10)
    Hero ($36.85)
    MP1 ($7.70)

    Preflop: Hero is UTG+1 with 3, 4.
    1 fold, Hero calls $0.25, 2 folds, MP3 calls $0.25, CO raises to $0.75, Button calls $0.75, SB calls $0.65, BB calls $0.50, Hero calls $0.50, MP3 calls $0.50.

    Flop: ($4.50) A, 2, 2 (6 players)
    SB checks, BB checks, Hero checks, MP3 checks, CO checks, Button checks.

    Turn: ($4.50) 5 (6 players)
    SB bets $0.75, BB raises to $3, Hero...

    In a multiway pot (probably any pot), i like to keep the pot from ballooning too much unless i have a monster. For me, a straight on a paired board with more than 3 opp is not a monster board. I imagine you are afraid of a boat, with the raise on turn. But, if the table has been seeing a ridiculously high % of flops, the kicker on a 2 isn't necessarily an A. Still, i think even with the unfortunate possibility that a FD sees the river for cheap and hits you still just call turn. And then call river, unless a diamond/ A/ 5/ 2 hits. 75% of the time none of these cards should hit river, and i have to imagine you are good at least 75% of the time on the river if none of these cards hit. No software to run any calculations, though i imagine once i do get it i will sound a little more confident about those %'s. Did you c/f/r turn, c/f/r river?
