FG - live borgata Mix of LP and TAG
BB fairly loose pf but plays well post flop
UTG+2 - TAG - vey solid player
I have been playing my usual TAG style. Have not shown down anything less than top/top. Getting a fair amount of respect from the table. Up a few rows.

UTG+2 limps. I raise from UTG+3 with AA
Fold to BB who calls. UTG+2 calls

flop - A94r (3 in 6.5 SB)
check to me, bet, call, call

turn - T (fourth suit)
chk, chk, ???

o.k. no flush or open str draw (possible gutshot). Good chance a bet would fold both. I feel 90% liklihood of both folding to a turn bet.
Bet to take it down now or check in an attempt to induce a river bluff and capture a bigger pot?? Of course I would raise any river bet or bet if checked to.

I posted this same hand on the small stakes. I feel the medium stakes feedback will differ. lay it on me.

Bet. They can't pay you off if you don't bet. Its amazing how people rationalize calls. Also giving them infinite odds on gutshots and the like is a very very very bad thing.

is their ANY good player that would check here ?

A94r is about as dry as it gets - what hands do you put them on? What good 2nd-bet hands are you hoping they catch on the river? What if one of them has 9Ts/9To?

Just bet. If they both fold, they where probably drawing to < 4 outs to a payoff hand, but if you check you lose value if one or both is looking to showdown or was slowplaying the flop.

Why would you ever check in a limit game.
Check in last position = 0 possible bb won
Bet in last position = 0 to 3 bb won.

There is an opportunity here: Bet, they fold, you show your top-set and exclaim 'You guys are too good!' Next time you may have KQs and want the folds.

Hands only need to be posted once. Especially ones this basic. The feedback will not differ at all. 100% of people in small stakes told you to bet. 100% of people here are telling you to bet. I'm locking this thread because it's a duplicate and unnecessary. If anyone reading this wants to open the discussion and suggest checking this turn, feel free to do so in the Small Stakes thread of the same name, or PM the OP.
