Default EPT Monte Carlo Hand 1

Blinds 50/100. I probably have like 40 hands on the villains, so my reads aren't definite yet.

HJ seems tight. He's probably opened only 3 or 4 pots since we started, and I don't remember anything interesting postflop--always c-bet, never saw a showdown.

BB is loose/passive. He limped maybe 50% of the time that it was unraised, and probably called raises 1/3 of the time or so. He played similarly postflop, but seemed to give up before the river, so I'm pretty sure he hasn't shown down anything yet. The one time I remember him raising pre, he c-bet and won. Also, he's finnish.

Preflop:
HJ (15kish) opens to 300, hero (30k) calls in the CO with K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], BB (15kish) makes it 1200, HJ calls, and hero calls.

Flop: 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]5[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]2[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (or some three rags, all diamonds)
Pot: t3700

BB checks?, HJ checks, Hero???????

Agreed - as much as I want to bet here, checking is definately the right thing.

Noah-

I consider myself to be a fairly to quite creative player, but I pretty much always check here, especially this deep.

Kramer is smart.

Is this one of those MLG-esque posts where your decision is super straight-forward and you are trying to trick people into making silly FPS responses?
