Would you push or check behind here?

what are you hoping to get called by on the river that you beat?

bearing mind its an UTG from a pretyt decent looking player.

its likely youre ahead here but im dont think shoving is +ev in this spot.

Is a worse hand going to call you? I personally don't think so. I would check behind.

What do people think about a flop raise? The mindonk is an expensive check imo. (Well, it's cheap if the preflop raisers don't raise I guess.)

This would change the play of the hand drastically. Not sure what others think about it though.

I would raise the flop. If you get reraised you can safely fold and since you 3 bet preflop the villains may just give you credit for AA or KK. I don't see any value in pushing, yuo'll only get called if beat IMO.

[Sorcerer808]

The reason why I didnt raise the flop is because I was beign REALLY aggro on that table, if they were just a little observant they'd call that flop with any pair.
