I would not have raised on the flop because the board poses straight and flush draws. Check the turn

The first rule of poker is to put more money in the pot when you are ahead. On the flop hero is ahead of both villians, raising is always correct here. With position on the villians hero can play optimally on all streets.

The best way to do this is by raising on this flop. If hero pots flop, he will be able to get most of his money in on a favorable turn. But unfortunately, this turn sucks. I agree with chucky that checking behind on the turn is good. |

[/ QUOTE ] I think you've misunderstood the concept of the free card. Although the SB has already put some money in on the flop before you act, you are currently ahead and to beat you he has to improve. If you don't raise the flop he's seeing the turn for no more than he's already put in the pot. It's still a free card even though there has been betting. |

Always raise the flop, Never bet the turn.
(by always and never I mean more than 95 percent of the time) |
