Re: way ahead, way behind

Let's say you raise w/ KK. Someone reraises (or just calls the big blind). Flop is AA6. You are either way ahead or way behind. Whoever is behind is not drawing very live.
When in this situation, your best strategy will be one that maximizes your win if way ahead but at the same time will minimize your loss if way behind.

Exactly. So if he leads into you on the flop you should just call down (bet if checked to), because you want him to keep betting his 2 outer but you don't want to put more money than necessary in whilst chasing a 2 outer.

what if he reraises this flop bet? Call it down?
Or, what if he just calls and leads out on the turn or CR the turn?
Is checking behind on this flop just too weak? and if you do get CR on the turn, depending on your opponent, are you either folding or calling down?
**so really, the concept is just to not get into a raising war if you're way behind or way ahead?**
sorry, I know this is fairly elemental, I just want to be sure I understand the concept correctly.
