I wish we had bet the flop, maybe 1000 to see where we stood. It has good texture for us and with only 2 opponents we have a good chance to use position to take this down right there (and if not, there are redraws out there). We're still a bit weary of the CO's open limp, and by checking behind we have no idea if anyone is sitting on something big.

Since we checked, I like the smooth call. We can get away from this hand if we miss, and probably win a nice pot from CO if we hit on the river. By raising here to 5,000, if the CO calls and a blank hits on the river, what would our play be? We showed no strength on the flop so that makes this play less believable. Do we really want to push the rest in on an ace-high bluff? The CO would be getting good odds so that may not even be enough to push him off if he has something like QJ.
