I really don't see the point of a raise on the flop. There are way too many possible hands that SB is reraising with, especially because the board is so scary, and he'll seek to protect his hand. And I really hate being all-in here. So it looks like we agree.

What you see on the turn is precisely what I saw as well. SB looks dangerous here. I knew that a bet was an option, but I decided that I would take my free card and either: get the BB to call a bet on the end if I hit the nuts; or call down another moderate bet from SB with my TPTK.

In any case, $60 sounds like a good amount here. Does anyone bet less? Does anyone bet pot?

For those who advocate getting more money in on the flop and turn, I'm interested to hear your arguments against the line I used. I feel fine with my preflop raise as it's standard for the game and I'd like to see a flop.
