Default Re: What flop decisions do you struggle with most?

I think that's a problem with a lot of 3/6 players. These are the types of players that have an AF of like 4 (mine was 4.5 before I figured this out) because they are trying to always make the right decision, which sounds like a good thing, but it isn't. Sometimes in poker you have to call down and lose because calling down is the right pay. Certain players hate doing this so they raise the flop for information get 3-bet and fold the turn UI. The problem with that kind of thinking is two fold. First, there are a lot of LAGs in 6m who will 3-bet with nothing thus forcing you to fold the best hand, and second, that almost every time it goes bet-raise-call on the flop and check-bet-fold on the turn your out between .5-1.5 BB. That adds up to a lot rather quickly.
