I often just fold them when I don't hit a set, even when I flop a low overpair and am facing action. So, I think I need to work on that. Calling flopbets more often to pick up pots from opps with just missed overs. This might also conceal my flopped sets a bit better.
I think I'll start out trying this float-type-thingy following these guidelines:
- I want to be in position on the PFR
- I'm looking for low raggy flops and preferably an opp. I have a read on.
- Fold to more action on the turn (?), bet when checked to
This will lead to something like the following hand:

This one felt a little bit too weak, but I don't know...
Will this be a profitable thing to try to implement, allthough I lose more when someone fires a second barrel? Is it at al necesary to try this out? If so, would this be the way do it or am I missing something important (should I be more agressive and therefore be looking to raise as opposed to calling for example)?
Maybe a bit difficult to answer these questions because of the broad subject, but I'm looking forward to any input.
