Default Re: Lead or c/r with relative position

you're probably right about the likely results.

anyway, on the hand. my order of lines would probably be check/call, lead, with check/raise coming in dead dead last.

BTW i check this flop as it allows the most money to go in when villain cbets, when he doesnt its not a disaster

Exactly.

As I stated earlier, with these size stacks it is impossible for me to find a fold anywhere. So my objective is to find a way to get it all in as quickly as possible. If someone bets say $150 into the pot ($165) you can raise to even $375 which almost guarantees a call. Now there is $915 in the middle and you each have $585 left. If he has anything (which he most likley does if he is still in the pot with you) then you are bound to be looked up pushing in giving him almost 3-1 on his money.

A lead out shows way too much strength and will probably cause everyone to either fold or call your flop bet and dump on the turn (unless it helped them).

Check calling has its merits. Obviously the theme here is to build this pot to justify pushing the turn without it looking unreasonable.

If you don't say why, nobody cares.

For defaults, on a pretty dry flop, I like to lead, as people tend to think you're stealing, and won't give you as much credit.

On a drawy flop, go for the c/r. You might get a few hangers on, and they might put you on a draw.

It depends on the villan. If he is a maniac, then let him bet away his stack. In situations like this vs a good player, I assume he has a big hand. If he has nothing but overs, your not going to make alot of money off him anyway so I go ahead and lead out 1/2 pot and hope for a raise. It depends on so much on reads that a post couldn't really explain all the factors.
