There must be a standard line here

[Guy McSucker]

I open raise A5s on the button and a 30/20 not-terrible TAG 3bets from the SB. I call, we take the flop heads up and it's A96 with no suits. TAG bets out.

I can see a few lines here:

1) Raise flop. The old fashioned, caveman style "ME HIT FLOP ME RAISE" line. Maybe end up folding somewhere along the line.
2) Play WA/WB: one bet on every street.
3) Raise the turn:
3a) check behind on river
3b) bet river
most likely folding if the turn gets threebet or if the river gets sexied.

Which do you take as a default and why? When you mix it up, what's the mix and why?

because it usally wins most when ahead and looses least when behind of course [img]/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img]

I play WA/WB here all the time.

Id say if you pick up a timing tell(unlikely) then you could raise IF your opponent knows that you woudl almsot always play way ahead/way behind here

1 and 3 sucks IMO

If the board is more drawy I raise the flop. But I am not folding.

I get to the end as cheap as possible. Unless I improve. I think approx 1/2 the hands in his range have you beat...but you'll split now and again by the end. So it is #2 for me.

I assume that when you all say "way ahead/way behind" you infer getting to the end cheap?

One thing I'll say is that raising the turn doesn't make any sense unless you can value bet the river.

I hate WA/WB lines but I think it is by far the best in this case when we have position.
I think raising turn and check behind is second best. But that depends on the turn card.
