Default Re: NL253: TPTK getting raised on the flop

You would have to raise more on the flop to deny a flush or straight draw proper odds. You bet enough to deny immediate pot odds but he certainly could justify a call based on implied odds.

But I think you shouldn't raise because it bloats the pot too much when you have just an OK hand.

As played, on the turn I might bet a little less to entice a flush draw to play. Maybe 15 or so. It's true that you are committed to the pot either way, but this way a flush draw might incorrectly call against you without the proper odds. If the villian is a calling station then maybe all-in is fine because he might call with a flush draw anyway...
