HOH2 c-bet question
 

in Dan's book where it explains the continuation bet, it says that after raising preflop from MP in a shorter table with K [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] J [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] the BB calls.

The flop comes A [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] T [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 5 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

Your opponent checks, and he advises checking behind here. I know you want a free card and a Queen will certainly win the hand for you, but there's only 4 cards in the deck that can give you your inside straight, and 3 can give you the nuts. I was thinking with outs this small, why not c-bet and try to take the pot. is it because of the dangerous board that more than likely has hit your opponent who likes to check raise?

How would this change if you still held K [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]J [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]
and the flop came Q [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] T [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 2 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] and your opponent checked. Should you bet now?

I thought checking with outs in position applied more to turn play. Also, why is this the opposite of good limit hold'em strategy?

thanks

As I recall Dan mentions that you should be more willing to bluff with hands that have no outs as you can easily get away from the hand

Hands with outs stand to profit from a free card.
