hand 1: why not check/call this flop.
-When you bet you can get raised, which sucks.
-When you check and its to bets cold, you can fold.

Yes, but when you check and it goes check check behind you that sucks most of all.

There is a very realistic chance you have the best hand on this flop and although getting raised does suck, it sucks much less than having the flop get checked through those times that your hand is best.

Why fold unimproved? You may have the best hand.

And people with worse hands are wrong to call you - why do you want them to fold if they are wrong to call you?

Well I don't like calling down flop+turn with bottom pair. Thats why I fold the turn UI.

And I don't want people with worse hands to fold.
I meant that when these 50+/5 guys call your bet on the flop they can have any kind of cards. So you don't know where you're at on the turn.

Then bet most turns...if they're always calling the flop, then chances are you'll still be ahead on the turn. if they raise, then you can usually fold, but a lot of them are just "peelers" and will fold to your bet on the turn.

I'm sorry, but all of your posts in this thread seem to demonstrate a lack of fundamentals with a tad of unwarranted paranoia and weak tight thinking.
