It probably wouldn't ruin your long term winrate to have a 30-35% c-bet frequency against more than 1 opponent, but i would say that there are still many general flop textures where i would c-bet, even facing two opponents. Good examples being paired flops and Ace high flops, also some ragged King/Queen high flops.


However, i do not like a c-bet on the flop above, since the board is very likely to have hit at least one of the opponents. Seeing as Hero only has a gutshot straight draw and a backdoor FD on the flop i think not c-betting here would probably be better, with the intention of folding to a large bet on the flop.

I am not sure whether to call/fold on the river. Personally i feel a fold on the river is best, looking at villan's stats. But i don't know if that is what i would do in the heat of the moment.
