i wouldn't bet the flop. i would probably c/c down UI

[Lunar Tweak]

or if you do bet the flop and he raises, then i'd fold the turn. depends on the player, if their flop raise will confirm they have a pair. but if it's a crazy LAG, then calling down UI is probably a better line.

What did you hope to accomplish by betting the flop?

[ghcnoob]

The flop bet is bad in retrospect. When I posted this I didn't realize he had 4-bet p/f. I was hoping to bully a fellow AK-type hand but he could 4-bet with QQ-AA and mabye JJ as well, making my donk a donkey move.

that hand is badly played &gt; Flop bet i useless and the calldown too
