here is what i would do
Check. This situation comes up often and is highly instructive. This is a classic case of a worse hand not calling, but better hand always calling. After the turn, it seems nobody had anything, not even top or medium pair. But you do have four opponents taking the flop and getting free boardcards. If a ten helped anyone else, it probably helped them more than you. It could easily give someone a straight, two pair, or even a pair with a better kicker than yours. If it did not help anyone, no one rates to call if you bet. Adding to your woes is the possibility of getting raised by one of the two opponents yet to act. On the Internet, some posters argued that you will get calls from ace-high type hands. But if you are one of the players yet to act, would you call a bet with no pair and players behind you? Probably not. Furthermore, your check might induce a bluff bet from one of the two players behind you, which you can call. Checking is the superior play even though you may have the best hand.  |
