Hero decided to bet 9bb here instead of checking, because
-was thinking I should have called a small bet on non-flush river
-one of villains was prob holding better Ax
-betting myself would build pot now when I still get chance to hit flush
-maybe once in a while I could make villain fold a better Ax on turn ( like an A5s on turn, although i realise not very likely)
-If one of villains would have bluffed big on river I would have folded, so in a way i was protecting my showdownvalue, Also did no think villains would have bluffed on turn and pushed me out of pot once I bet, did not see many Kx in villains range that would valueraise either
questions: -If I checked turn, should I have called a small bet on non-flush river?
-if turn was checked and river flush, how big should i have bet to get value from Ax or lost Kx?
-if turn was checked and river blanked and got checked to me, should I have gone for some ultrathin value or just checkbehind?
-Is there any logic in my reasoning for betting or is just checking behind on turn always standard play here?
ps: I realise the call preflop with A2s there from mp is debatable, just hoping to get into a multiway with nutflushdraw here, maybe risk is to great to get squeezed or UTG was limping monster, was mainly thinking about implieds and hoping to get into a multiway in position with nuts
