I would flat call on the flop, BB bet scares me mroe than MP1 bet. I don't want a big pot. Im weak tight though, everyone knows this.

I dunno. Seems like an awful expensive way to find out if you have the best hand. I usually tend to lead the flop just because I think it's the cheapest way to get some info. I don't know if it's the best way.

I think I would have folded this pre-flop, with only one limper. But maybe that's wrong.

On this flop I would bet, and fold to a raise.

i call preflop but folding wont kill you.

So curtains, your line is to c/c the whole way down? Lately this is what I've been doing to get to the end cheaply, but it feels so wrong.

Cheap how? explain your line?

Re: Playing from the blinds: J9o
 

Check call, lead turn in most cases.

Like curtains said, you don't want a big pot and the above line gives you a fair bit of information relatively cheaply.

Why c/c, lead turn instead of c/r flop?
