Default Re: NL25: Flopping a straight on a monotone board

Don't know, the thing is, NLHE is about playing big pots, and big pots occur, when someone has the best hand, and the other guy has a secondbest hand he really likes. In cases like this I always wonder if I am the moron in the hand or the other guy. I have no problem getting it AI on the flop with a set on a monotone board, but a straight is just not going to improve. So what do I do if I bet the turn, say about a potsized bet, and villain shoves? Fold, getting 2:1 on my money? Can we say it depends on reads?
