    Default Odd result, what to do?

    I had been at the table for a few orbits. No real reads; But the BB (Joker2918) just sat down. Was very surprised to get so many callers. Figured suited callers and maybe PPs.

    My bet on the flop was a test to see where I was at. I was pretty much done with the hand if raised or called; Being out of position just hurt too much to continue firing.

    With all checks on the Turn, would any of you have bet this? Anyone play this any different?

    First off I dont think you should be raising this mediocre hand from the SB at this limit...too many calling stations. I would just complete the SB with it and hope to hit a flush.

    As played though I would bet more on the flop though, or bet nothing at all...betting a little under 1/3rd of the pot will accomplish nothing except inflate the pot even more. I'd bet more like $2 and then check fold turn and river. Or I would check flop and bet a non heart turn. People tend to fold way more often on the turn.
    But I am definitely not putting any more money into this pot after that flop play.

    Well I would obviously bet out if I hit Top Pair, but I wouldnt play this hand like it was AK. All im saying is dont raise this hand from the SB at NL$10 or NL$25....higher limits Im sure is a completely different story.
    But on a table full of calling stations you dont want to be OOP with TPNK.

    If I'm betting this hand on the flop and I get 3 callers I am done with the hand.

    These guys suck and ATs is way ahead of them. Easy value raise to build a pot and punish their craptastic hands.

    After 3 flop calls I'd be happy to see a showdown.
