Any thoughts on how the hand below was played?
Looked like both MP(56/1 140 hands) and CO (50/11 28 hands) were bad players.
Most interested in the decision on the turn, after the FD hits should we check here or is it OK to bet again?
My thinking for betting was that there was still alot of TP and Second pair hands these guys could call with.
Also the board was getting pretty drawy.
Any thoughts?

    Totally fine IMO. Maybe bet a little smaller OTT so you can fold if CO raises, but hard to get away given MP2's fishiness and comparatively short stack.

    I'm not a fan of the 8bb raise pre.. generally when I do raise big it's with a made hand like JJ+ I do this for a couple of reasons.. 1. my bluff c-bets (when they fold enough) are smaller(when I have AJ-AK and miss) 2. If I do hit with AK-AQ I can still Pot, Pot,Pot and get their entire stack anyways.(easy to get their stacks since there not topped usually) 3. if they do silly little 3bs I have a better price to call

    As for the hand I'm bet/folding the turn like HP.. I don't think a 56/1 raises the turn with a hand you beat... his thinking is more along the lines of "I doubt he has a flush..i'll call" not " I doubt he has a flush ill raise"
