Default Re: Playing weak second pairs out of the blinds

I prefer betting out compared to C/R. There is only 3SB in the pot and this gives us some bad reverse implied odds with checkraising. If he has us beat our checkraising will cost us 2sb on the flop + 2sb when we bet out on the turn. That is 4sb to win 1 sb. It would be much easier to just bet out and if he calls or raises we can decide from that point.
Generally we want to come down cheap so no need to get tricky with our marginal made hand. Bet out must be it.
