Default Re: An Easy One? 12/24

Betting this ace makes no sense. Everyone without an ace or a 6 or a club draw will fold and your chance to win at showdown hasn't increased. If you bet and get called you are likely behind. If you check and the 3-better bets out the pot is large enough that the instances he will bet out again with kk, qq and jj (and your kicker may beat the blinds) and the instances where he has ak and it will be a split, justifies a call.
