Message: [QUOTE="JappsPK, post: 6645433, member: 1014105"] Based on the information provided, it seems like you have a relatively strong hand with top pair and a decent kicker. Pre-flop, it's fine to just call and see a flop since you're in the big blind and getting good pot odds. On the flop, you should definitely lead out with a bet, given that you have top pair and there are several players in the pot. By checking, you're allowing your opponents to take control of the hand and potentially bluff you off your hand. Betting also helps you to build the pot and potentially get value from worse hands. When LP bets on the flop and both UTG+1 and you call, it's likely that they also have some piece of the board, such as a pair or a straight draw. On the turn, you can continue to lead out with a bet to keep the pressure on your opponents and to protect your hand from any draws that they may have. Your bet of 416 into a pot of 694 is a little over half pot, which is a reasonable sizing. On the river, the board doesn't change much, so you should consider whether or not to bet for value. Since UTG+1 called your bet on the turn, they likely have a decent hand, so you can consider checking and trying to get to showdown. Alternatively, you could bet a smaller amount, such as a third or a quarter pot, to try to get value from worse hands. However, you should be prepared to fold if your opponent raises your bet, as they likely have a strong hand in that case. Overall, your play seems reasonable, but it's important to be mindful of your opponents' ranges and to try to extract value when you have a strong hand. [/QUOTE]
