How to bleed them with the nuts? (okay, near nuts)

I don't think there's really a wrong way to play this. If they caught a piece of the flop there's a chance to get some change and if they didn't I don't think you're getting paid off much no matter when/how you bet/coax.

I think it would be wrong to not get paid enough when you have the best hand and your opponent makes a hand off on which he's willing to pay you. (Sweet, got that one...)

The new line amounts to raising more preflop and then making an appropriate flop bet. My point was that once that flop comes down, whether you get paid off has more to do with whether someone caught a piece than how you play the hand from that point on.

I don't mind the flop check. As long as you don't do it all the time.

I like betting 1/3-1/2 pot on the turn...make it look like a probe. Pretend you're an aggressive player with a king-questionable kicker.

You simply have to make the JQ or the clubs pay to chase their draws.

A ten will pay you anyway, and crappy hands usually won't pay you enough to matter.

Bet enough to keep the draws in , but make them pay and pray they hit.
