My guess is he was slow playing the top pair just as you "might" with pocket As. Problem with slow playing a pair is you get beat by trips. Like everyone said, don't slow play here.

Checking the flop is terrible. This board is plenty coordinated and you have a hand to protect. Bet for value and protection.

Thanks. I pretty much never check in this situation, but I got a little goofy today.
Would checking be OK if the board was rainbow? |

EC,
It is really important to realize that you MUST bet flops that you hit in addition to those that you continuation bet. You should be betting 70%+ of flops that you raise PF and then either miss or hit (I'm closer to 90%). It allows you take down many hands and builds pots for those hands that you flop monsters. |
