6 max. folded to me and I open As Qs 5s 6h OTB

SB and BB call. Both loose players, playing 60 and 50% vpip respectively.

flop Qc Jh 4s

both players check to me.

my standard line is to CB here. and if i get c/r'd just call a single bet hoping to improve OTT. anyone play flop differently?

as it turns out i bet flop, sb calls and bb folds.

turn 9s giving me NFD.

who's betting turn and who's checking back?

thanks in advance

Checking back much of my range here. One more spade MIGHT inspire a river bet from villain with a worse flush, or with a made hand on the turn he was hoping to c/r.

I'm checking back and evaluating river card for showdown.

It’s a limit game so I’m betting the turn because getting c/r is not really a big deal and handing out free equity realization to very marginal hands that would have folded is not good.

Yeah, this is a trivial bet imo.

Yep, count me in this camp. Scotch's reasoning is best.

3-ways on the flop, HU to the turn, there's a reasonable chance your "made hand" is best anyway. If it's not, you have plenty of outs to draw out. Meanwhile, BB could have a jack or a four, and allowing her a free draw at two pair is not good.
