Good stuff. Lots of times UTG is going to call w/ his gutshot or top pair or 2nd pair or whatever, then MP will raise and you can 3 bet. The OP's line of checking the flop is bad because now you will get no money from UTG if you checkraise and if you check call you're giving him good odds on a broadway heavy flop.

That was my reasoning behind leading the turn. I don't understand why everyone wants to lead the flop. They'll shut down pretty quickly if I 3-bet there. They're drawing pretty thin against me unless they have QT so I'm not worried about giving good odds on the flop.

I never said 3-bet the flop. depending on the action, you can stop n go or checkraise the turn. your line worked out fine, but I think betting gets more bets in the pot consistently
