Call the flop? No straight or flush chances, but it's heads up. Call the turn? Call the river?

bet the flop. many, many utg and button limping hands (QJ, Q9, A8, JT, etc.) did not connect with this flop.

if i got one flop caller, i would also lead that very nice turn card. then i'd check call the river.

the way you played this hand allows your opponents to take free cards with hands that need them and value bet hands that don't.

yeah flop bet is pretty much mandatory in my opinion. call a raise and reevaluate on the turn.

i bet/call the flop and reevaluate the turn. I'm tempted to call down with no /images/graemlins/spade.gif on the board, but then again, i'm a fish.

Bet the flop. Bet the turn. C/C the flop.

If he raises the flop, call the turn and reevaluate.

Lots of people autobet when they are checked too. Also, this a pretty draw heavy board; a 7 or 3 or flush draw can easily be betting.
