Default Re: 98s in the Blind. Flop play.

[ QUOTE ]
I'll usually check/fold, but if UTG leads (likely) and CO just calls (somewhat likely), then maybe I'll call along. You probably have around 5 outs here (4ish to two-pair or set, plus 1ish for both backdoors).

Actually, maybe leading is better. Hopefully UTG will raise, and everyone will fold, and we can see the river with 6.5 live outs.

why would you put in 3 sb preflop and then fold when you flop top pair with two backdoor draws. the CO might have a real hand like 99-AA, but he could easily have AT, KJs, KQo.

I'd bet, hoping UTG raises, and go from there, if it goes bet, raise, 3-bet, then I'd start thinking about folding depending on my reads.

Check/folding here sucks.

Also, do solid players really LRR?
