Hand vs 2+2'er

[Ballers83]

C/R the flop is a must... you want to knock the fish out or make him pay 2 bets for drawing against you. As played, check call turn and river

c/r'ing the flop also might buy you a cheaper showdown when you're behind his TT+ if he perceives you as solid and not c/r'ing the flop light.

This doesn't make sense bill. Why would Dcb check-raise JJ+ here and not 3-bet preflop. In the case that Dcb has a 7, he's not going to c-r twice (this is a personal read on him but he's not.)

So would he not bluff you? The line you took basically puts your hand on the table. If he is capable of making a play at the pot I don't like it. My standard is to c/r the flop. But if he is your buddy and wouldn't push you off a hand then this is good.

I, too, would c/r flop here. I was surprized when I read that OP called the flop and immediately thought he was planning to c/r the turn. The donk threw me for a loop, but I think you are right, D; it screams "I've got the 9!".
