So raise the flop and if he calls then bet any turn card JV?

yeah, no way I am giving him a free showdown here. give him a chance to dump his hand on the turn, which if you miss your card is great.

Yes. And if he 3-bets, call and raise the turn.

He doesn't have much and you just have to convince him that his not much is not going to be good enough.

Nice flop. I'd pound this turkey as much as I could. If he calls it all good for him, just so him your soon-too-be straight flush.

Whenever I flop a monster draw like this, I feel obligated by Shania to blast it.

Whew, I was worried there was something more complicated to it than that.

How is that a monster flop? The overcards may not be good and hero may be up against triplicates. In a game this size opponents mix their play up. Opponent may have a Six or he
may be slowplaying an overpair before the flop. I would raise
the flop and if I am three bet try to draw as cheaply as possible.

Raise the flop see if you can get a free turn card? That would be my plan cap it if you get the chance. You hit the turn for flush or a 8 your golden if now you have a free turn card prolly....Im new to higher limit though maybe my thinkings wrong

the problem with taking a free card on the turn is if you miss your draw he shows down J-10 or A-8 or K-Q and you wanna shoot yourself

I don't think you can raise the flop representing an overpair and then take the free turn card. That just looks way too fishy. You gotta fire another one on the turn unimproved and hope he folds or you hit.

I definitely like raising the flop. If he 3 bets you on the flop I think it is much better to just call the 3 bet then raise the turn. That line does the best job of making it look like you are huge.

I like this line better than capping the flop if he 3 bets since it no longer looks like you may be pumping a big draw i.e. AKh-A2h or T9h, especially given his age and thoughts about his image (although I think hiatus and his level of concentration would make it impossible to think he's inexperienced if one played with him for a few hours. . . ) This is not a free card situation though and if called bet the river despite all the previous action. ..
