Yep, no matter what Your hand is, if 2 people checked the flop and the turn to You, bet 2/3 of the pot in position. You will succeed in more than half of Your trys. Your hand doesn't matter any more here!

Dude this is really bad advice. The only time when I'm even close to betting any flop is if I raised preflop and got it heads up and then was checked to on the flop.

Autobetting anything 3-way is not good. If the flop comes A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] or anything with a strong amount of draws, there is no way you're succeeding half the in just blindly betting into 2 opponents.

You've probably heard it again and again, but poker is a game of millions of situations, and giving general advice like this is a one way ticket to busto.
