Default Re: Fold or raise the flop from the button? I raised.

I have to raise the flop, don't I? I do not have exact reads but I'm assuming straight draws aplenty and perhaps I'm outkicked for top pair.

This problem is tough for me too. I don't think you have to raise the flop due to your low pot equity in this large field. Pstove gives the JT less than 24% against 6 random hands. As you said, you are often against better hands so your pot equity will be much less.

I think the turn would be raised so you could make a decision to fold, or raise depending on what happens. If it was checked then bet to protect.
