I bet a little less, (1/2 pot) but its a good continuation bet.

I fold to a raise.

I don't CB this flop against two opponents. Of course, it's not that bad considering K is not an A.

I check/fold here.

This seems a phenomenally standard way to play this hand. At least based on how I'd play it (though with 2 limpers, I may raise slightly more preflop).

Hey, obviously I'm brand new and could totally be wrong. But isn't check/fold on a K high flop w/ QQ a little too cautious? I mean, obviously if you're called or raised you're check/folding...but why not try to pick up the pot right here?

Lastchance, I think your play is too weak here. Against a 3rd opponnent I like it, against two you likely have the best hand.

I bet this even if an Ace flopped. but I don't plan on putting more money in.

I like following the rule of two.thirds and it does well for me, but does anyone like betting more or less on this flop? Preflop seems standard, raising to 70 with blinds 10/15

At the low levels, Ax shows up a lot more than you might expect. With two opponents and an ace on board, I think I save a lot of chips by check-folding.

At the 11's, you may very well be right, I don't have first hand knowledge of that.

If Im folding to a re-raise, then ~1/2 is enough for a CB.
