Lead or c/r with relative position

[Nielsio]

Oh man, it depends on so many things. Right now we know nothing of either three players and your history at the table.

Against standard loose/overplaying players, check-raising the field seems good; as the raiser is to your immediate left.

if I am against a bad player, I like to check raise. If I am against a solid player, I like to lead.

checking with the intention of raising is worlds different than checking with the intention of calling.

leading this flop looks pretty strong to me...

The poll is pretty even this far.

I understand that it depends on lots of factors like image etc. but I was looking for the standard play, after all, it might be the first hand at the table with no history whatsoever. I dont like this type of hands where no stats or anything is stated, but this is an example.

One thing I thought about here was that the pot is 4-handed and therefor the PFR might be afraid someone of the two players behind him will wake up with a good hand and therefor only call (or maybe even fold) a hand strong as AQ or KK. But regardless of that I prefer the lead for sure.

Some follow ups:

1# Would you be more inclined to lead/check (to start with) if it was:

1#1, 2 players in the pot (Hero and UTG(PFR))
1#2, 3 players in the pot (Hero, UTG(PFR) and Button)

2# Are you more inclined to lead/check (to start with) if the board had two of the same suit, ie 4[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]?

BTW i check this flop as it allows the most money to go in when villain cbets, when he doesnt its not a disaster

Hat, the board is a factor right? There is a good posibility that this flop hit the pre raiser yet you are fearlessly leading into him. AND also leading into 2+ players shows even more strenght.

Yes, because if I c/r it shows looots of strenght, especially if PFR bets and someone calls behind us. And c/c and checking the turn is very dangerous because of the round check possibility, and I dont like the c/c lead turn line most of the time.

the poll is pretty even because you need to make a real poll which separates options 2 and 3, which as i said, are completely different.

Well, can you evolve this? And your thought about the hand example. Also, if it was separeted the lead would be in the lead (hoho) because the 2 and 3 are together, the players that think c/r or c/c is the "correct" answer obviously votes on check (to start with), or am I missing something here?
