I was wondering why no one has suggested not leading out on the flop? I don't really see what leading out accomplishes here... There are no strong draws to fear, you are first to act, and you're really only setting yourself up to be raised and confused. No overcards can come to your pair either. If you were to check here, you might get it checked through, in which case you could feel more confident on the turn. Alternatively, it might come two bets cold to you, in which case you could feel good about folding. Finally, it might get checked to the a limper who bets, in which case you could call or c/r to drive out another weak ace.

I really don't see much advantage to leading out this flop from the SB.
