I'm weird, but I check this flop a lot.

Checking this flop is not weird at all. Probably actually standard.

why bet so big on the flop? 25-30 sounds good. Without any reads on this guy you can fold or call his minraise and see what he does on the turn.

nobody ever folds anyways, and I get raised less when I bet bigger.

According to my min raise poll (although I have to say there certainly weren't thousands of responses) the most common* reason for the min raise is they have the nuts.

The second most common is they're trying to draw cheaply. It doesn't look like a draw would raise you on this board, so you're probably beat.


*The "I am a doofus" selection was actually the most popular response, but what the heck.

Crappy spot, but I see to many of these bluffs to fold. Maybe call and see what he does on the turn.

Calling is the worst play as I see it. Does another bet by him on the turn mean he's firing the 2nd barrel of a bluff, or that you're definately beaten?

Raise or fold. If he calls the raise it's check/fold mode.

I disagree totally against unknowns with that size of stack. So many of those that make minimum c/r bets like this then shut up or make small bets from then on, otherwise massively overbet.
