Re: Is a flop bet mandated here?
:::grunch:::
Don't bet the flop. You've got 2 overcards that are 5 clean outs, 1 dirty out, and then a backdoor non-nut flush and backdoor straight. So you've got approx 6.5 outs.
If you bet, you don't scare flush or inside straight draws, and everyone who has any piece of that flop gets to draw to two pair/trips. So betting doesn't protect your hand if you're best, and it doesn't scare away any draws. Check it.
