Is taking a free card here really bad 3 handed? (If so, plz explain why)

It seems like charging yourself to draw, when you risk being checkriased with air/trash ( especially if Ax isn't in your cold call range pre) is not optimal. Or do we just have SOOOO much equity that it doesn't matter?

Do I understand correctly that you mean checking behind on the flop? That would be a disaster IMO, since we are so likely to draw out, even if they don't fold. I view it as a free shot at the pot really, with all that equity behind. As it went, this hand did not exactly go as planned [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img].

Then you must felt this hand if you bet at all, right? Seems like you MUST felt, b/c you face a real risk of being pushed out with air/worse draw/garbage ace.

No, I don't agree. Why do I face this risk particularly for this type of flop? I don't see why these hands are suddenly very likely to push me out of this pot.
