I'd raise preflop and I'd raise the turn.

Wow... a few things.

Raise pf. This is an absolute must.

If you raised pf, and it is checked to you on the flop, you must bet the flop (checking here and coming alive on the turn will scream "I flopped trips"). If SB bets into you on the flop, then smooth call and pop it on the turn.

However you get through the flop, you must just continue hitting the bet/raise buttons on the turn and the river.

I am in-line with what prior posters are saying. My question is this, if you aren't raising in these wonderful situations.... when are you raising? I would guess not nearly enough.

PS This is where Bison would say something like: 1/2 questions should be posted in the microforum.

PF just-call cost you a LOT of money. What are you thinking? Raise.

In these loose games don't get cute. Generally no-brainer raise without. IN this case he probably doesn't have a Q and is likely to check the turn no matter what. If YOU raise the flop then HE is going to get suspicious (since everyone knows that everyone slow-plays monsters, heheheDoh) and will call you down with whatever he's got; and if he DOES have a queen you get a couple extra raises in.

Flat call only if you genuinely fear he'll fold. But if he WILL fold then he's very unlikely to catch something good enough to play on the turn, so slow-playing is only worth pennies.
