playing agianst tight players I would check here, i want to see what the action is after me. if sombody bets then i have a good chance to check raise on the turn, if it checks through the flop then bet the turn and bet the river. if these are loose players who would call with anything betting is probally a good choice as well. Keep in mind that an ace is the only overcard to the flop and there aren't that many hands that people would be drawing to, to call a flop bet, this is why i would hope to give them a chance to hit a pair on the turn.

you having raised preflop, he's either got something that he's going to call/raise you with or he doesn't. Unless he's some kind of super aggro, I'd just bet and hope he calls that for one extra sb because that's likely all you'll get.

i'd bet, if raised just call and checkraise the turn. if it's 3-bet back to you go ahead and cap.

I just bet out and hope someone calls. You might argue that we should slow-play here because the pot is small, but one of the key components of slow-playing is allowing one of your oponents to improve to a 2nd bet hand. What could an opponent improve to here? If someone holds a K, we don't want them to improve!

bet it, it would be a shame to see it checked through. personally, I would bet, call a raise, hoping to 3 bet on turn.

I'd bet. The problem with raising pre-flop, slowplaying this type of flop and coming alive on the turn is that it usually says "I have a monster" in neon lettering.

Bet. A preflop raise from the BB, and then a check on the flop is very suspect, maybe not at micro levels, but at higher levels, many players will pick up on that pretty easily. As already stated, you might also get someone with a King to bump it and then you can three bet, or CR the turn.

Easy open fold. KQ has you crushed.
