MP2 checks, Hero ???
It's HU, so he's unlikely to have a straight draw. Flush draw is a possibility, but you have the A/images/graemlins/diamond.gif, so he can't like calling big bets here. Since you raised PF though, he probably won't try to bet into you anyway, and would just check/fold the turn. Presuming no reads, do you bet it everytime?
If you do bet, how much? I don't like min betting here as it just invites sticky situations when a straight or flush comes, and you're getting paid very little to suffer through that.
