    Any comments?

    I would have done this move instantly with 1 or 2 in the pot, but with 3 others it seemed marginal.

    Do you push the turn if you're called? What if the 4-to-a-straight or 3-flush comes?

    usually i check the turn because of so many scary cards, but there are some that would probably give me the best hand (8 or 9) and i would push

    Do you have any reads on the other 2 players.
    Betting 300 (which is the minimal bet you should make) leaves you with 780 chips, and does not really scare away the flush draws they need to call 300 to a 900 pot.

    Assuming you bet 300 and get reraised what do you do ?

    I think this is either a check or a push, I am leaning towards check/fold

    I would push and try to take down the pot and prevent somones from drawing out on you.

    I think if you get called it would be by an over pair or somone with mid pair good kicker.
