3-handed at the moment and both opponents are relatively unknown. Each is your standard 41/7 loose/passive 10/20 opponent.

Party Poker 10/20 Hold'em (6 max, 3 handed) converter

Preflop: Hero is SB with 6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].
Button calls, Hero completes, BB checks.

Flop: (3 SB) 8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 4[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>

What's your "standard" line here?

I would bet. I have no idea if that is correct, but it is what I do.

Bet the flop and 3 bet if raised. Lead the turn, and check fold the river unimproved.

Check fold the flop, the pot is small and u only spent half a bet. If this is too tight 4 u bet the flop fold to any further aggression whatsoever unless u imrpove.

I'm going to assume you don't realize he has a double gutshot...

Default Does no one *ever* go for a check-raise here?

Just curious.

I think you have enough to call w/ implied odds+chance you'll hit a 6 or 7 and get a free showdown.

You're getting 38:8 or 4.75:1 on the draw and you're getting 3.5:1 pot odds. I think you make more than a little more than 1.25 BB on implied odds.

Fair enough...

At least now I know why my WSD is lower than everyone else in this forum. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

Well, 41/7s usually aren't going to the river with A-high. They also might fold a weak 8 . . . It's probably bad, but I'm just curious.

I bet the flop and wouldn't give any other play a second look. Usually I bet the turn as well but that's a huge "it depends"

1. I win a ton of pots by doing this.

2. You make a Sklansky-fortune when A5 chases your pair of eights to showdown in a 3 SB pot. These semibluff bets balance my play and preserve this major income stream.

3. My pair outs have no kickers. Taking K6 out of this pot is a big gain because it may allow me to win a pot that was about to become an expensive loser when I am compelled to show my pair down.
