Default Re: NL50 Frequent Situation that keeps happening

I'm not sure that tricking yourself into ignoring the bet all together is the optimal line here. The theory behind it has potential though. The villain is telling you, this flop in somewhere in the vicinity of his range. We raise, to find out how close. For example, I personally will often lead 1/3-2/3 pot with a set on flops like these, especially in a raised pot.(Never mindonk but thats just the sign of an inexperienced player)

Putting a cbet type 1/2-psb bet (or raise in this scenario because of the mindonk) in the pot on this type of pot, especially 3 handed is very much borderline. While, depending on your image, you should often cbet most hands on most flops, however in this situation if you choose to cbet into 2 players you need to be basically shutting down if you miss the turn, and even if you do hit the turn, proceed with caution. Stacking off to a K or Q turn here is extremely spewish.

After all, we have NPND here.
