Re: Theory (possible SSH mistake) on flop/turn bets and not giving odds
This isn't a safe flop at all. Basically, you've made a scenario where you presupposed that slowplaying was good, then reasoned out why it wasn't. Your conclusion is correct: you shouldn't just call the flop, but mostly because slowplaying is bad here. Either lead out or check-raise.
Also, in this specific example, I think you counted wrong. If you lead out, UTG is only getting 7.5:1 to call. I think you counted the big blind twice, maybe. So his call would be a mistake anyway, especially with the further action that is to be expected.
