Should I play this faster?

[Daverer]

Sorry if this isn't super interesting.. it was the hand I was most unsure about from today. Would you raise preflop (very limpy table, and my thinking was a. this isn't a particularly strong hand and b. I really want as many hangers on as I can because if I hit either hi or lo I'll likely have the nuts so the more the merrier). More importantly, would you drive the four-flush, backdoor nut low draw on the flop? I think there's probably some maths that'll show whether it's worthwhile getting 3 or 4 more small bets in the pot?

Also, random question - normally I play 5NL so I'm used to having say $10 or so at stake in a session - what level limit O8 would you play in my shoes? Today I played 5c/10c and I never really felt like much more than $1 was at stake. Also, I didn't feel at risk of losing at all, such was the level of the competition, so I figure I can keep on moving up til I find my place.

You have the nuts? So value bet!! Make it about pot on turn and river.

Edit: Didn't see it's limit xD
Is there a way to play the turn fast other than betting?

[Daverer]

Nope, once I'd made my hand I played it as fast as was possible, so I was wondering if I could earn more by betting before I made it. Thinking about it mathematically, I figure I have 9 diamond outs twice, but I'd have to discount that a little - if it's an ace or a two and another low card comes out I may only get half the pot and if it's otherwise low I could win only 3/4s.. so maybe I have the equivalent of ~6 outs to scoop so about [edit to correct terribly wrong maths!] 25% winning chance on the flop. So I need to be able to get a 4x return on any speculative bet, and so I guess the answer is no there aren't quite enough players left in the pot for a bet on the flop to be profitable? [Edit2] I dunno.. maybe I'm being too pessimistic calling it 6 outs.. any two non-flush non-A-2 low cards give me some winnings.. if we could call it 7 or 8 then I'd just barely have the odds to raise.. I'm just thinking out loud at this point..

It takes some real nuts to make a strong move here. However, if you win it will be a great profit for you. It is totally up to you, and the amount you are willing to loose and win.

It is a little difficult.
