Default Re: NL100 - Is This Standard?

By default, you should probably c-b the flop, and fold if you run into a pot-sized c/r.

Checking to take a free card isn't terrible, however. But once you check the flop, you should call the turn. You have 9 heart outs, 3 straight outs, and 3 ace outs. All the outs might not be good, but you have great position. So, if all the outs are good, you'll catch one about 30% of the time and you are getting 3:1 odds to make the call. So, just take the 3:1 pot odds and call.

Overbetting the turn when anybody with a flush would have gone for a c/r on the flop is spew. You win a little when you win, and you stack off too much when one of the guys in front of you, espeically SB, wakes up with a flopped flush.
