    Default 2pair deep multiway pot/ line check please

    Med.Stud has been quiet for awhile now, but appears to be a solid player, nothing out of line. Elgoog is pretty spewy and I'm not to concerned about being behind against him. Is a c/c in this position ok?



    Starting game 1796456952.

    Mason75 is at seat 0 with $10.25.
    Trashcona is at seat 1 with $95.85.
    Elgoog is at seat 2 with $40.
    Med.Stud is at seat 4 with $87.10.
    RebVodka is at seat 5 with $73.45.

    The dealer is seat 2.

    Med.Stud posts a blind of $.25.
    RebVodka posts a blind of $.50.

    (Trashcona is dealt Jh 10h.)

    Pre-flop:
    Mason75 calls for $.50.
    Trashcona calls for $.50.
    Elgoog calls for $.50.
    Med.Stud calls for $.25.
    RebVodka checks.

    The flop comes (pot=$2.40)
    10c 2s Js.

    Med.Stud bets $2.50.
    RebVodka folds.
    Mason75 folds.
    Trashcona raises $5.
    Elgoog calls for $7.50.
    Med.Stud calls for $5.

    The turn comes Ad.(pot=$23.75)

    Med.Stud checks.
    Trashcona bets $15.
    Elgoog calls for $15.
    Med.Stud calls for $15.

    The river comes 3c. (pot=$67.00)

    Trashcona checks.
    Elgoog checks.

    You pretty much have to raise the flop I think, you're only behind a set of 2's. Turn card is bad for you because it either kills action, makes someone's 2-pair or TP with flush draw.
    I would have pushed a blank turn, I like calling this one. River is fine.

    Gotta raise flop hard, 2p with lower broadway cards often doesn't hold in a multiway because there is often someone with an OESD, and/or someone with a pair that can hit a better 2p on turn or river.

    The superior man, when resting in safety, does not forget that danger may come. When in a state of security he does not forget the possibility of ruin. When all is orderly, he does not forget that disorder may come. Thus his person is not endangered, and his States and all their clans are preserved.

    it's a limped pot so you're right to be careful, but all you have to worry about is 22 right now. I'd make is $10 on the flop. Bet/fold the turn (the A is a pretty bad card), and check the river.
