Happens a lot in shorthanded games - how do others handle it.
Probably no easy answer but . . .In a simple form.
Game is normally 60 to 75% see the flop (is this loose?) and at passive calling stations (to a point).
Let's say I have KTo. I'm UTG, flop is rags. Normally I bet and see what happens next. I feel I should show strength, at this point there are probably at least 2 other players. What next, press it? Slow down and let others do the work?
If I slow down and somebody else bets it's now a guessing game. Should I just keep betting as long as nothing REAL scary shows?
