Let's assume I make a 3/4 pot bet on the flop. BB calls, and the turn card is the same. Now what?

Boy will I get flamed for this [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] ....

Check/fold the flop. Small pot. Weak hand. Draw-laden board. Early. Playing hands like this is a recipe for trouble.

Let's say you lead at the flop (as most posters suggest) and are flat called. Aside from jacks and non-club 3-6s, what are you hoping will hit the turn and river?

I'm not bothered one bit to fold my hand here, even if it's the best on the flop.

You are one of the few non-hyperactively minded posters here.

I dunno, it would depend on how I feel. I would lean towards betting something because you have the best hand so often.

Check-raise cost him 125
Check-call/lead 2/3 is 100 into a 150 pot costing him 130. Costs slightly more.

I like betting the flop for 75, seeing what happens and getting away with a small pot or having enough information to make a laydown. If he calls, bet the pot on a blank turn.

but if you run into a set and AJ you'll more than likely see 'check, bet, raise' then you can fold for free.

Id put the chance of a set here at maybe under 5%. (set meaning wired pair that makes a full house, not a duece).

Who has no intentions of adding to this thread....*shrug*....and would fold preflop...flat call the flop...and would play the turn any number of ways.
