Re: Live 40/80 flop middle pair with a backdoor flush
I like calling then raising most turn cards and checking behind on the river. You charge him double if he was checkraising with draw, and you may occasionally get him to fold a better hand like a ten with a weak kicker or 88. It costs the same as calling down, and if you get 3-bet I think you have a pretty easy fold.
Now if the turn is a spade I'd consider just calling, you need to see the river and can no longer safely fold to a 3-bet.
