Thin calldowns in small pots

[dogdrool]

I don't know how you can just plan to check-call to showdown when the flop is a 3-suiter.

I do this a lot and can't decide if it's a good idea or not. In small pots with a retarded aggro enough opponent, I c/c down with anything of showdown value, inducing him to keep bluffing. By the turn and river bet true it's less and less likely they're still bluffing, but it happens.

How do you play these? Bet, bet, c/c (folding if a spade hits)? Fold anywhere without a spade hitting?

i think you could c/r the flop. c/c the turn if he still bets out (if not you can bet, or take the free card, and fold/bluff the river depending on the turn action.

probably fold the river given hes going to bet the river here w/ three 6's.
