So lately I have run into quite a few hands where I get to the flop with AK or AQ against one other player and wind up getting folded to when I bet.
I was thinking of slowplaying in these situations because I think it may help my action. Does anyone check a flop like the one below in hopes of getting the blind to stick around for the later streets or am I looking to cost myself money in the long run?
