Re: 88 hand

This looks to me like either a raise/fold flop deal.

Then I suggest you plan ahead and decide if you want to cap. Because it's going to come up. Villain either has a strong made hand or a multiple draw and he's going to want to play it fast on this flop. That JT combination is murder facing a tight UTG raise.
I would invest as little money as possible in this hand until I got a sense of who has what.
The more I think about this the more I think Hero should just fold the flop. I think some posters were lulled by the fact that tricky/aggressive BB quietly folded the flop behind us. There is a huge danger of a flop checkraise, of having the second best hand and the second best flush draw, and of being used as a pinball on the big streets after an interesting card hits.
It says a lot about our flop situation that a good player was willing to fold the river after BB folded behind us and we caught two undercard blanks on the big streets.
