Might as well give it a nice title. Beaver had his own thoughts on my play but curious as to what the masses are doing. No reads really necessary.

I'm a limit noob but I check/fold... 4 in the pot, a bet wont scare all of them out, probably DONT have the best hand at this point, 2pr is calling you down probably, I see no reason to persue this hand.

It's very unlikely you have the best hand, and the pot is only 4 BB's. I'd just give up and check-fold.

I either lead again and fold to a raise or check and just see what happens (e.g. I easily check/fold if it gets bet and raised but I might very well check/call if it gets checked to button who then decides to bet).

That was the line I took. Bet/fold the turn but beaver brought up just check/folding. Actually, I was raised on the turn but I was drawing dead on the flop. The raiser had AK and two other had the spade draw that bricked.
