This is not a brag post, serious question.

Player 1 has just sat down, Player 2 is fairly solid NL4 reg(...... who always seems to appear on my table as soon as I sit down, which is worrying lol) he will limp call PPs and also Sooted connectors (but not to the amount I raised with the latter).

Once I get two calls and the flop lands as it does what should I have done? Im not sure the shove was correct, although my thinking was that I didnt want it going 3 handed on the turn on that board, any one with an Ace is on a draw as is any two diamonds so may get one caller.....which I did. But to be honest I didnt like that board so was happy to take the pot down there.

However if either player has trips through PP im crushed or of course AA......what a man to do?

    Bet 1.16 and shove the turn....../call off if raised.

    Jamming is probably not a bad option though, and better than betting too small.

    Standard play I reckon.

    Trips is always a danger, no matter what the flop.

    AA - well, it happens.

    Flopped straight - What are the odds - would you call a 5xmin re-raise with A2 or 67s?

    Hate the way 1 played it. I can see a case for 1 raising all in with his 3rd nut flush draw to take it down, but calling? Not for me. But this is NL4 so anything can happen!

    Anyway, better players than me will give you proper advice.

    Thanks all.

    So lets say I did raise 1.16 got 1 or 2 callers and see a diamond or worse a 2 on the turn......am I still stacking off? Checking? Betting? im first to act of course.

    I get stuck on these kind of hands when it gets to the turn if the above happens.

    bet 1-1.30, call a shove. Its easier for worse hands to raise you than call it off.
