Free Showdown

[QTip]

SackUp:

Check out hepfap on pages 92-94, and then see if you still feel the same way about the flop play. Not saying you won't, just want to see if you think this is a misapplication of the concepts there.

Not sure of the "correct" play or even the free showdown play in general but I usually raise this flop. This will likely fold the other player and put the fear into the bettor. If 3bet on the flop I think I can get away from it. If not, I bet the turn and take down the pot or fold to the checkraise. If just called I take my free showdown or call a suspicious river bet.

I checked that section in HPFAP but I think the hands are different enough that they didnt help me out here.
