weak-tight whuss play

[dumb ox]

Since MP 3 cold called a raise, I wrongly put him on a flush draw. Should I have:

a)bet the turn, folded to a raise

b)bet the turn, and called if raised,

c)check the turn, but once MP 3 checks, bet out on the river.

Any advice is much appreciated.

Advice one: forget the commentary

Preflop: I'd fold

Flop: check raise is fine, but I would have bet out. Anyone want to explain why a check raise is bettor. I know the goal is to eliminate opponents, but with TPTK - who do you want folding that will fold - that's a question; i'm on a bizzare keyboard.

Turn: I bet

River: bet

someone earlier said not to put anyone on a flush draw until they show you otherwise. Solid rule of thumb!
