Default Re: 5/10 nl game problem putting button on a hand

I'm bumping this hoping that someone else will chime in with an opinion.

It's hard for me to say what I would do here because a lot of it would have to do with my read on the button.

He called a $30 LP raise - which doesn't tell you much. But then he called a $100 reraise - which might tell you something depending on his read of you.

Against an uber-rock, I'd consider check-folding this hand. Against a tricky/LAG, I'd have to consider the strong possibilty that he called the flop bet with the intention of taking the pot from me on the turn if he thought I might be holding QQ.

I guess the one thing I can add is that before you made the flop bet you should be considering what you would do in the event you got called/raised.

If you don't want to play a huge pot with this hand I'd consider mayber leading for less on the flop ($150-$175).

This will let you bet $250-$275 or so comfortably on the turn and makes folding to a raise (if that's what you decide to do) less painful.
