I've stopped raising flops like this. I don't have a big enough sample size to tell, but I feel like I'm losing less money.

don't raise the flop, fold the turn if he bets again.

edit: also, if SB was a serious UberLAG, I would consider folding the flop, but would probably call unless I knew he was checkraising.

A good portion of the time, I raise the flop, and then check through the turn if I have the 2 overcards and some sort of backdoor action going on. Is this terrible?

I fold if they redonk the turn though...

Call the flop and raise or fold the turn, or call the turn if you pick up a better draw. I used to auto raise these flops too.

I would have checked through on the turn and raised the river (since I have the A [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]) raising then flop and checking through the turn is a plausible way to play a flush draw, let's see if he likes his hand enough to call (fairly easy fold to a three-bet I think).

But I'm a chip spewing crazy.
