Default Re: Good flop not good enough?

In this case, if the initial raiser's post-flop betting had been weaker, I would have played the hand much more aggressively, since up to this point he had not been aggressive at all unless he had a monster hand (on an earlier hand he had made a 4xBB raise UTG, then check/folded when an ace and a king came on the flop). But his half-stack bet on the flop was screaming that the jack on the board didn't bother him at all (I think the two hearts on the board scared him worse). Therefore, given the nature of my oppponent, I felt that folding TPTK was a good move, even with the flush draw.

You never know. The raiser might be overplaying AK. I've tried this move before, usually with little success.
