How about a flop bet?

You have to bet the flop.

Don't slow play hands like this. TPTK is vulnerable, charge your opponent to stay in the pot.

Why the hell did you check the flop?

Why are you so fancy? Bet the flop. Your line is good against reasonably smart opponents. But you're at $0.5/1, not $5/10.

I bet this flop at 5/10 and 10/20 every time. But I know what you were trying to say [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

You wouldn't be missing out on much if you just went ahead and bet the flop 100% of the time. There is no need to get fancy against the typical player.

Welcome to the boards.

Nice raise pf, you are not a complete doofus! Oh wait, yes you are, you checked the flop through with TPTK!!!! That was pretty bad, but I like the turn raise given that horrible check. After the 2nd gaybet on the river and 3 broadways up there, I call too. You should have been leading the whole way and if he raised you on the turn, I might consider calling down.

Your flop check to induce a turn bet is definitely some FPS. But heads up, is it really so bad? Villain almost certainly has no more than 5 outs against us.

Why not value raise this river? Getting 3-bet would suck, but i think the weird flop and turn play may have induced a donkbet with some holding we beat.
