Pre Flop: (pot: 1.4 BB) Hero has T A

fold, fold, MP calls 1 BB, fold, fold, BTN calls 1 BB, Hero raises to 6 BB, fold, MP calls 5 BB, BTN calls 5 BB

Flop: (19 BB, 3 players) 4 A 7
Hero checks, MP checks, BTN checks

Notes: How do we feel about calling the turn raise here? Feel like we're near top once we x flop; if we fold this, what do we continue with? River feels like a fold...

Kinda feels like fold or all-in time on the turn to me when you get raised. Gotta figure the chips are going in before showdown, so it's time to decide whether to make a stand or not in my mind.

I'm also curious about the flop check. I just came across a GTOWizard scenario earlier that suggested I check a somewhat similar situation (K-high flop and I had KQ). I don't think I've ever checked a situation like that in my life, unless I was really specifically trying to put a play on someone I had a bunch of history with. But I'm starting to think I'm missing something. What's the thinking there?

What's the thinking there?

on multiway flops, I revert to a simplified 1/3rd pot or x strat (probably doing like 35% b / 65% x) and figured going to throw a lot of air, 10s-KKs, etc. into the x range so we have to balance with some strong Ax too. more incentivized to x these aforementioned Ax's due to how dry this texture is.

not sure if the above is sound lol, but this is my thought process on flop. p sure theory suggest betting smaller when more opponents as a heuristic, primarily b/c our equity distribution shifts & bluffs work less often
