i probably would have came out betting, that being said since you checked and he bet, the likelihood is he has AA,KK,QQ,AJ or something. I certainly wouldnt call,folding i think is best,also a raise all-in semi-bluff style hoping to catch one of your 10 outs is tempting but that could be sniffed out pretty easily, so in conlusion i play the 11's and havent got a clue!!!!!!!!!!

So, better question. Do you like a lead out bet here? If so, how much?

i think a bet of about 80 should suffice. If he then raises you your pretty sure he has you beat and you can throw away your hand. The problem with not betting is that its hard to tell what he's betting with, it would be very plausable for him to have something like AK,AQ which you have beat. Thats just my advice I am sure some of the big dogs will come in later to flame my advice!!!!!

A bet of 80 in a 220 pot does nothing but waste chips at the $55 level. That stinks of weakness and won't get any info. A probe bet has to be a little more than that.

I never like betting less than half the pot. Unless I already have a made hand. Perhaps that's a tell.

At this point, it is too late. The decision was made when you checked. If your plan was to call a bet of this size, then you should have bet into him to start with.

I certainly wouldn't call.

I probably check the flop also and see what he does. When he bets 200, that really tells me nothing. He could have AK, he could have AA. I suppose I have to fold against most opponents, but I'm not happy about it.

If he had bet 150, I probably push.

btw - I think you have to seriously consider raising preflop here. Raise to 50 preflop and you might get a better idea of what he is holding.
