#3, I don't like the idea of check raising this one as it looks like an expensive way to take down the pot. Problem is we have to follow up with a bet on the turn and if we don't hit the river is very tricky to play. I would prefer to just bet the flop, call a raise and fold the turn UI.

If you bet the flop, you should be bet/folding since calling a raise with no pair/no draw in a small pot is not a good idea. I think check/raising the flop becomes a viable line against players who will bet this flop with any two cards but will give up on their bluff if someone calls or raises. For example: If I was the last guy to act in this limped pot, it would probably be correct to check/raise me with any two cards. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
