    Default I'm lost here all moves seem bad.

    Full Tilt Poker, $0.25/$0.50 NL Hold'em Cash Game, 7 Players
    LeggoPoker.com - Hand History Converter

    CO: $49.60
    BTN: $50
    SB: $57.70
    BB: $45.20
    UTG: $10
    UTG+1: $39.10
    Hero (MP): $59.25

    Pre-Flop: 9 9 dealt to Hero (MP)
    UTG calls $0.50, UTG+1 calls $0.50, Hero raises to $2.50, 2 folds, SB calls $2.25, 2 folds, UTG+1 calls $2

    Flop: ($8.50) 8 7 T (3 Players)
    SB checks, UTG+1 checks, Hero?

    I'm kinda lost here. SB is 11/4 and UTG+1 is a 58/0 fish who minbets a lot with his entire range and it a slowplaying fan as well as a chasing fan (this combination makes things a little hard).

    Any way do I check this back b/stackoff b/c b/f.

    If flatted how do I continue if the turn bricks off and they both check again?

    Not saying its the right move but I just check back hoping for a strong card like the 6s or something. Betting is a semibluff and wtf could SB be calling with preflop that we are ahead of? Also what would UTG+1 lay down that we are behind? Shitty spot and since you dont have that much invested I dont see anything wrong with just checking back. Also if we do spike a 6 or J we could really get paid off by a slowplayed monster like a set.
    Lots of good rakeback options at http://www.rakeguard.com/?raf=KRE8R

    KRE8R probably has about seventy college funds in his NL5 roll.

    bet/fold is good, especially with SB first to act after you here

    B/f

    As for the other question I'd bet turn for value against the 58/0 hu otherwise I just check it back
    For Free Money, Rakeback and some 6x Ongame bonuses, I recommend PokerSource.

    I recommend Cardrunners for superb poker coaching. It was honestly the single biggest improvement in my game signing up there! Sign-up fee might seem steep, but it pays itself back within weeks.

    bet for value. evaluate if raised.

    If called, i'd probably mix it up between betting turn again, or checking it back and flatting a decent river depending on who called the turn and what the river card/action was.

    Ok, good to see I was just being results orientated.

    I bet 6.5, the SB made it 17 and I folded.
