I would flat call on the flop, BB bet scares me mroe than MP1 bet. I don't want a big pot. Im weak tight though, everyone knows this.

I dunno. Seems like an awful expensive way to find out if you have the best hand. I usually tend to lead the flop just because I think it's the cheapest way to get some info. I don't know if it's the best way.

I think I would have folded this pre-flop, with only one limper. But maybe that's wrong.

On this flop I would bet, and fold to a raise.

So curtains, your line is to c/c the whole way down? Lately this is what I've been doing to get to the end cheaply, but it feels so wrong.

Check call, lead turn in most cases.

Like curtains said, you don't want a big pot and the above line gives you a fair bit of information relatively cheaply.

Why c/c, lead turn instead of c/r flop?
