Default Re: What do you do when you flop a monster on a steal?

This is not a very good board to use this line. Potential problems...

- Overcard hits and he checks behind.
- Flush card hits and you end up check/raising him with the worst hand (or he checks behind).
- Flush card hits and you have to change your line and lead out to prevent giving him a free card.

The best board to check/raise the turn on is something like K [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 8 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 4 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]. Very few scare cards can hit (for you or him) and the board is drawless so you can almost always count on a turn bet and a calldown.

Just go ahead and 3-bet the flop here.
