This is my first hand, so no reads. Check-fold the turn unimproved, or call down? Thanks.

You can be pretty confident that MP will bet the flop when checked to here. I like to check-raise the flop. If MP 3-bets on the flop - call and check/fold the turn UI. If MP just calls the flop - then lead the turn and I think it's a pretty easy fold if you're raised. If called on the turn I lead the river as well. This is a pretty standard line for me - am I "out of line"?

thats a lot of complicated action for a pretty simple situation.

bet-calling or check-calling this flop are fine.

hmmm.. in Standard Hand 101 you had said cc, cc, b was better than bet-calling and then calling down (4th post in the topic)... so is bet-call viable here b/c of the 6max nature of the hand and higher kicker or solely b/c of the 3rd player?

Anyone else like check-call turn, and bet the river?

this board is semi coordinated with the clubs and potential gutshot.
