Without a read I play it the same and if he had lead out the flop I would just call/call/call.

why would you call the flop raise? you're not getting odds to hit your set and he's betting the turn approx. 100% of the time. I think calling the flop intending to fold on the turn is throwing money away.

Agreed.

A preflod raise UTG and a check raise on the flop looks like he was playing something like A,K or A,Q. I say drop it on the flop.

Your probably right. but people do goofy things on the turn. IE I call, then he checks the turn, trying for a trifecta, or maybe he's on something else - i don't know - but enough that i'd be curious to see what he does do.

I'm happy to see that someone here has read my book.

Fit or folding,

I just wanted to go on record and say that this is, by far, the lamest gimmick account I've seen.

Carry on.

Without a read, I would play it exactly like you did.
