basic line where I think I am losing money - 5/10 6max

[BK_]

his hand looks alot like either a mid strengh top pair type hand or a big hand. either way, unless a great card falls on the turn (ace), your line isnt any better than either 3 betting or folding. i like flat calling raises like that on the flop if i am in position, so i can pot the turn if he checks it. that isnt the case here, so i see no real benefit to playing it this way.

given that you got to the turn how you did, i like the lead out alot.
