Default Re: Playing from the Blinds: Top pair with various kickers.

I somehow have the tendency to check and see what the others do with low kickers, and bet out with a good kicker. Is this OK? I do this, because if I check with a good kicker and someone else bets the pot, I don't know if he really has a hand or just bet because it was checked to him. If I bet and someone raises me he is showing real strength. If I have a lower kicker, I check, and if someone makes a bet I'm more inclined to fold right there, and check/call if the situation permits it. (weak?!)

Anyone can think of pro's and cons for betting out and check/calling with various kickers? [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

EDIT: I think betting out 3/4 of the pot or something like that is better than checking with a low kicker, because this way you'll get much more information. But betting into >3 people is so scary! [img]/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img]
