UTG checks, ...

He doesnt have that much left, but im not going to be ahead of anything that he is re-raising me with and wants to get all in with on this flop. So what to do here?

He already said he isn't gonna be ahead if UTG is gonna get it all in on the flop.

Boy is that an ugly flop for you. Playing pot control isn't really easy since he'll get it in on the next two streets anyway. Will he bet at you on the turn with KK? If so, I'm definitely checking this flop. Hell, I dunno that I can find a bet here at any time.

Are you comfortable enough with your read that you could just fold at any sign of aggression? This isn't a pot I would feel real great about committing another $700 to as long as villain isn't a total moron...

The fact that he has like 700 left makes it much more difficult for m to figure out where i am at. If i check, he's going to bet basically all of his holdings on the turn, including the ones that i have crushed. At the point the pot will be like 700 assuming i cal a pot sized bet, and it seems like i might get priced into calling a river bet since he could have AK or be dicking around with AJ. For those of you who say check it, what would you're plan be on subsequent streets? (Also, understand i am not trying to argue against checking, i think it's probably the right move, i just need to understand how we playing the following streets after this line)

either you dont play 10/20 or you are not winning at NLHE.

A check on the flop looks good.

So say you checked behind on the flop.

He he pots it on the turn with a brick, what is the plan? and what do you give him credit for holding?

Re: Situation where i don\'t know what to do...
 

my question to you is, if hes willing to check raise you on the flop, what does the turn matter?

if you think hes WA you probably have to dump the turn anyways.

check i guess..

I check-check-check-fold this to any real-sized bet. Any suspicious bet (too small, too big) and I may call. I think sometimes people will bet stupidly/obviously with KK or JJ in this situation and I can call down. I mean, he did limp-min-reraise preflop, he's not exactly a creative bettor.
