Default Re: Missed Bets Galore?

Jeff (or anyone else), can someone discuss the thoughts behind the flop call and what to do on the turn if it does not improve your hand.

Playing shorthanded, I never know how to handle a checkraise in this situation after making the automatic flop bet. If he is checkraising you with any pair you are quite an underdog. Against two clubs you may be 50/50. Even against a complete bluff you are not a huge favorite.

Sometimes, I might check the flop here to avoid being predictable, avoid predictaments like this, and also to cover for the times when I might want to check a monster.
