True, I could use some help here.

[Claunchy]

I have yet to hear one non-retarded reason to bet in this thread.

And if I see the words "protect" or "find out where we're at" I'm gonna pull all my hair out individually.

Oh, I thought you were saying to bet also MrTEA.

I didn't see the True post OP is refering to but I'd assume he meant checking the flop with hands like AJ on a AJx flop. Checking flops with good hands to balance strategy certainly does not apply to this hand it really may as well be AK.

Im betting this flop 100% of the time to abot $90, if I get called I'm done with the hand. Since your concerned with balancing your play, you bet the 100% of the time with AA,KK,TT,99 right?

This isn't really about balancing play its about maximising EV. Betting pretty much turns our hand into a bluff vs this guy imo.

I know that, but OPs opening line states that balancing play is his main reason for checking this flop.

"may as well be AK" ie. a bluff.

Metagame should be the last thing on his mind imo.
