[EDIT] This post should have been a reply to unarmed's post.

If he bets 130 on the flop then you call. If your beat you have outs, if he's beat he's betting with the worst hand, either way you are in good shape. If you are ahead, you're opponent is likely drawing to 2-3 outs, and even if he hits you have redraws. Checking here is not weak because it accomplishes two things, a) getting your opponent to put money into the pot drawing slim and b) not allowing your opponent to charge the maximum to draw if you are indeed behind.

The turn is fairly disastrous because Ax has just overtaken you, but you still have almost half the deck if that's the case which isn't so bad... I know some people hate to give out free cards, but it's not a bad thing considering he will only overtake you between 5-6.5% of the time on the turn. This is a very unlikely, and coupled with the fact that YOU might need the free card, there really isn't much reason to push this too hard on the flop.

Now if the flop contained 2 hears but no K or Q.. Well then that's a different story [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
