Default Re: Junk in the blinds, turn a pair

Against a loose pasive, which this guy appears to be, I'll c/f this flop.

I'd be hesitant to trust any sort of read at this point, since it's only been 7 hands. Although given that this is 3/6 6m, loose passive is as good a default as any.

I largely bet this flop because I talked with Victor briefly in Vegas about shorthanded play. The "talk" mostly consisted of me explaining how much I suck at it, him being very humble, and then both of us returning to food and alcohol. However, one thing he mentioned was that, in the blinds, he bets a large percent of the flops when there's one bad preflop limper. So this hand is me (mis?)applying his comments.

after all this math ive decided that i want to see a turn with this hand but im not sure if i like a bet or a checkcall. betting naturally sounds right according to twoplustwo aggression but i think checkcalling might be more profitable.

More people smarter than me should continue this discussion. I think if I had a read on him as being somewhat tighter postflop than average (for 3/6) then that pushes this to a bet, but I'm not sure. As for the turn...
