I'm in a bit of a downswing, so I'm going back over the basics a bit.What's the standard line here? Villian is unknown.

I would raise more on the flop, maybe to $12 or $14.

As played I like the bet on the flop, and I would make a $40ish bet on the turn and check behind on the river.

If he check raises you are in a tough spot because it is basically a min raise, but I would probably lay it down against an unknown. The best case scenario is you have to dodge 15 outs on the river, and the more likely scenario is you are drawing dead or to two outs.

EDIT: I did the math wrong on his stack. If he check raises you have to call. I still like the rest of my line though.

I don't see what you can do but push. Villain only has a PSB left.

Check turn.

on blank - valuebet/call any bet

Push seems like the obvious thing, I think I get called by a worse hand fairly often. But I'm interested in hearing your argument for checking behind Maulik.
