Default Re: Slowplay?

The problem is I think checking through the flop tells him you have KK/QQ most of the time, and you might still end up getting owned if he wants to check/raise the turn.

There's no point in AK checking behind since it would want to induce a value bluff from JJ, and JJ/TT isn't bluffing if you check through, except maybe check/raise bluffing occasionaly, so you just give it a free shot at 2 outs. You also miss out on a SB from the pocket pairs that will calldown.

Also you probably wouldn't check through TT as JJ might fold the flop. I don't think JJ checks through much either.
