Default Re: Flopping overpair when limped with medium pocket pair

If bet of 1/2 or 2/3 or so to you , then min raise

Min-raising achieves nothing. He's not going to fold to it and you learn nothing. Plus it tells him nothing about the strength of your hand.

If bet into I'd probably raise it up to ~3 times his bet & fold to a push.

The tough question is what to do on the turn when he calls and an overcard falls. Checking behind leaves you open to a bluff on the river, and betting out starts to commit you to the pot. Either way I think I bet something - ~3/4 pot to let me check behind on the river.
