I reread the passage, and it is clear to me now that the passage refers to a totally different situation. It, like Nate states, refers to a situation where hero has top pair versus 2 opponents. One of these opponents it very aggresive and leads the flop.

Eh?

U qouted from page 204 right? And it states:

[ QUOTE ]
two people check, you are last to act, and one of your opponents is an extremly aggressive player. You should always check...

U are saying he leads the flop? Am I quoting from the wrong page?

The reason u shouldnt check is that if u have a style where not betting the flop in this spot dont give away your hand as a very good hand because you would never ever check a bad hand here you are playing with the wrong style. Of course u can always try checking against a player not thinking but it will do you little good since he is probably prepared to call flop with any2 anyway.
