Default Betting Ace high flops OOP with Ax

More specifically at 6 max when one or two people have limped, you complete in the sb with Ax, and the BB checks. Whether or not we should complete from the SB is a whole other thread.

Say you're in the SB with A7o, two MP players limp, and it folds around to you in the SB, you complete with A7o, and the BB checks.

Flop comes: Axx

What's my action, and why. Be specific.

How often is my ace being outkicked?

Is betting this flop essentially bluffing?

Wrong forum.

As for what to do: don't check/raise. And don't lead 3 streets of betting. You want this to be a small pot, not a big one.

the xx's matter.

the suits matter.

Usually I check to see the action. If there is a single bet i call, and try to keep pot small on turn and river. If pot escalates, I fold. If there is more action than a single bet on the flop, I fold.

I don't see a lot of hands calling flop, turn and river that you beat unless you improve. If you check call flop, turn gets checked through, you can usually make a value bet on the river.

the turn/river card matter a lot too obv
