Re: Flop Top 2: My line?
[ QUOTE ]
Raise flop for value. Don't show results.

Not showing results has as much effect on an analysis as showing the results. You end up with a lot of "Ok, so you flopped 2 pair and ran into a set, get over it!" type crap, and folks automatically assume you lost the hand (which could alter their analysis of the hand).
In some cases the results should be left out. In this case I don't believe that. The results are hidden. You are free to form your opinions without looking.
As far as raising the flop, I feel like that may be counter-productive here. There aren't any draws on the board, There is one player left to act behind me. I welcome his call with mid pair. If he was c/r a set, my raise doesn't stop that. I can raise the turn and get more value, I think, and the pot isn't so big on the turn that I will hate turning loose of this if something weird happens.
I will have to think about that a bit more though...thanks for your input.
