Re: could you lay this down
Your right, the lead out on the flop was my best bet, but with 60$ in the pot I would have had to bet at least 30, and a check raise at that point would suck. Had 3 in behind me at the time.

Re: Semi-Bluff right or wrong?
Yes he checks the flop, action is now to me. My question is now a semi-bluff to a player I don't think I can get a fold from.
