Why not check and then bet the flop regardless, hmm?

This is actually a really good point... I'm starting to wonder if this is more profitable against calling stations, so long as I only do it often enough that he can believe I have a hand and am not just trying to knock him off the pot.

The only problem is that this could open up his flop calling range even more, since $0.50 flop bets made without pf initiative are a lot easier for a limping station to justify calling than a $2 cbet.

What do you think?

You could also just accept that you aren't going to win every hand and try to pick your spots better where you are almost certainly +EV.

Fair comment-- certainly folding this crap is not a bad option.

As played, how do you like the semi-bluff on the turn?

Post flop is good. The second barrel is fine, most lower pairs will fold and you might get a queen to come along.

And preflop is disgusting.
