NOTE: I haven't read any of the other responses (yet).


I like your initial check on the flop, because it gives Hero the chance to see what UTG (preflop aggressor) does, and also allows us to see how Button (preflop cold-caller) reacts.

Further, there's a decent chance Hero is behind on this flop, so I don't really like betting out (we're just asking to get raised by UTG pretty much regardless of what he has).

The way the flop played out, with Button overcalling on this ragged relatively drawless board, I feel a fold on this flop is the correct play. (After all, the pot isn't exactly large anyway).



(Now, if button had of folded the flop, a case could be made for call the flop.)
