Re: Play a hand with me (NLTRN)
 

I bet 60 here--my usual c-bet.

Re: Play a hand with me (NLTRN)
 

60 seems a little smaller than most people's c-bets. Do you generally c-bet 1/2 pot, or is that just at this blind level?

I like to bet the pot occasionally in positions like this. Especially with paired flops, we take it down a good amount of the time and it's interesting to see how opponents respond to situations like this.

Re: Play a hand with me (NLTRN)
 

I agree that a good donk-bet is in line here. It appears that we are both playing pretty passive at this point. It is time to start opening up our game.
