AK13 - That seems like the right thing to do--fold to a raise on the flop bet.

What value is there in betting the turn?

It keeps you from getting bluffed out by low pockets, or random cards that stupidly peeled the flop and now decide to bluff the scare board now that you checked. (if the flop action went bet/call this only has to work a little under 25% of the time)

EDIT: Just realized I didn't make this so clear, I agree that bet-folding the flop is best, I was talking about the times that we bet the flop and get flat called. Checking the flop sucks and check-calling the late streets sucks more.

So after we bet the flop and say we are flat called. What would be the move on the turn? bet? c/r?

I always seem to get messed up after getting flat called and out of position.

Preflop you did fine. Continue to read the forums, though. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] After checking the turn you can fold.

after 3betting preflop i think your best play on the flop is bet/fold to a raise
assuming he flat calls your flop bet your options are c/f or b/f the turn. with that specific turn card i don't bet very often.
i think check-calling the turn is a disaster
