Re: Too Perfect Flop -- What line do you take?
[ QUOTE ]
this situation comes up often enough. Second hand of the tournament. UTG minraises. I am in the CO with QQ. I reraise to 100 (blinds 10/15). Folds back to UTG, who calls.
Flop comes QT6 rainbow. UTG checks. What do I do? Does it even matter?
A check here looks ridiculous and suspicious.
A too small bet may give him proper odds to continue with his hand.
A pot sized bet looks too strong.
An overbet is unlikely to get called.
I've been experimenting with too small bets or overbets. I've thought about slowplaying to the river and giving him a chance to catch a hand. What do others do?

I'm confused. You've got top set with no flush draw. If he's behind, don't you WANT him to call and continue? On this flop, the only draw you'd really fear is a straight draw.
Bet as much as you think he's going to call.
I'd bet 1/2 pot to full pot here.
