As usual, I concur with the big green elephant. If it's not raised before me, I'm raising these hands, except maybe AJo from the blinds....and just maybe not.

As for after the flop, it depends on many factors. Here are some important ones:

1. Is there any chance a c-bet will win the pot right now? If the answer to this is yes, you practically have to c-bet.

2. Do I have an equity edge? If the flop is TJ4r and I have AKs against 6 opponents, I probably have an equity edge against the field. I can bet for value.

3. Do I have the best hand? On a flop of 662 against 3 opponents, my UI AQo is probably still winning. I should bet for both the above reasons.

4. Will a bet get everyone to check to me on the turn. If you're on the button, raised PF, then bet the flop and get 2 callers, they will almost certainly check to you on the turn, giving you a free card.
