I cap the flop for sure. Capping regains the lead in the hand and possibly gets CO to fold. Any reads on these players? If these players are not total morons "SET" seems to be flashing in neon lights in my head (by the turn at least). Reads would really help here.

flop turn seems fine, I'd consider capping the flop

what I'm confused on is why didn't you bet the river? what made you think they had a K?

Well I got that familiar feeling of been outdrawn again

no read on CO
BB was LA-A

I would have considered capping the flop. Turn is fine. Bet the river--I fold to a raise.

I never cap the flop, if you are strong you give to much information, if you are weak it is spewing chips. Turn is good. I bet the river and fold to a rais.

I really hope you mean, "I never cap the flop in these circumstances" because if you mean to say you never cap the flop, then you are a goofball. No offense, but you would just have to hate money.

Tell me when is it good to cap the flop. I very rerly cap it. And I love my money.

If there was an obvious draw on the board I would really like the flop call turn raise, but as it is it looks like everyone's got their queens or whatever looks good to them, so jam this flop and hope they slow down (=you win). If you cap the flop and BB still leads the turn, I'd probably just call him down since CO doubtfully has more than 3 outs against you if he's behind.
