With just 3 players seeing the flop I tend to bet out here, after one player checked, for around 50 and fold when I get any resistance.

when you use this converter select the 2+2 format fromm the dropdown. i'd lead 40 and be done if called/raised.

I rarely bet this spot. If you check to the last guy to act, he will almost always bet with any 2. If the SB folds I will call and hope to get it checked down. Since he called I think you can safely let this go.

On the flopI lead for 45 and give up after a call most of the time.As played I like your fold.

I like your line.

You're called 99.3465734 % of the time when you bet the flop and have created a bigger pot for nothing.

If SB did not call, I would have called the flop bet.
