Villain is pretty much unknown, other guy in the hand on the flop was a std, TAG.

I'm unsure of value in Cbetting this flop multiway. As for the turn bet it's to fold out 77-99 and to get value from FDs. Not really too sure on my play though.

I think this is fine. I prefer betting the flop with the aim of barrelling a lot of good turns and checking back bad ones than checking the flop.

Looks good to me.

I dont know really, villains stack size indicates to a bad player. I can see him calling flop with A2, A5, A7. I dont think middle pairs fold turn tbh.

cbetting is definitely fine but i think I just try to go to SD now.

I think I prefer checking back this flop, you get c/r so much and put into an awkward situation where you're often folding the best hand and or unsure whether you have good enough equity to 3bet on flop (probably don't )

We also can disguise our hand a tiny bit as I think opponents would expect us to cbet most of our draw hands.

The A is a decent card, he will pretty much play straight forward here and fold most single pair type hands.

I dont really expect to get c/r on this flop. strong hands usually lead. I would also assume UTG is passive. So if you do get c/r youre just smoked. Also its 3way so your cbet should get more credit.

just call your cbet a thin valuebet and protection from overs.

Looks good to me, you have pretty good equity on flop and turn is a great scare card.

I don't really see why is this such a great spot to bet on the turn. You think you're behind that often when you get called on the flop that you have to turn your hand into a bluff? I'm also not sure that he folds a pair enough times to your barrel on the A card.
