Fairly standard play. I'm raising my eights pre-flop to extract max value if I hit the set ot to take down the pot with a CB if I miss.

Ok I hit but I don't slowplay it. Play the CB exactly the same way with a pot-sized bet. Hmmm... he's calling on a rainbow board with only a bit of straight coordination. Maybe he connected a p[air here? I don't have much of a read on this guy but need to be careful cause his WSD% is only 20% and he tends to win more than 1/2 of the time when he gets there.

Not a great card cause it could have completed a straight. Is this the time to slow down here?

Hero checks, <font color="#CC3333">MP bets $1.5</font>, Hero ???
I slow down here cause I'm worried about the straight but I could have induced a bluff bet. Any thoughts?
