Default Re: ATo in BB - simple flop question

[ QUOTE ]
I like c/r in this spot because it is likely Button will bet if everybody checks to him. I want to chase out UTG+1 with his two overcards, if possible. Even better if somebody also has a T.

And if it checks through it is no tragedy because even if a diamond hits the turn, somebody would have bet out their flush draw so you are probably still safe and now you face the field with a big bet. Of course it sucks if a J, Q, or K hits - but it is a relatively small pot anyway...

I like this thinking, however, I tend to bet out because I want flush draws and overcards to pay.

I might expect to get raised by someone with a flush draw, and called by someone with overcard draw. I would reraise, believing I still have the best hand. Then make a decision on the turn, which will probably be betting out, depending on my read of the remaining players.
