Default My Set Brings Flush

$200 NL Full Ring
Blinds $1/$2

Hero in SB with $195
MP has $257
CO has $217


HERO has J [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]J [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]

Hero posts $1, BB posts $2, MP calls $2, CO calls $2, Hero raises to $10, MP calls CO calls.

FLOP ($32) 3 players

9 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]6 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]4 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

Hero bets $25, CO calls

Turn ($82)

J [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

Hero????

My feel on the flop call was he was the flush draw.

If I pot bet this it is half my remaining stack and I would think I would be committed to a reraise All In. Should I bet, if so how much? How bad is Check Calling?

c/r seems sort of bad to me

I like betting a lot better for a few reasons. Villain could very well have a flush draw, and giving a free card sucks. Lots of villain's hands which include a flush draw will call a bet on the turn but not if they miss on the river, so you want to get value against them now. Also, I think the bet turn/push river line is better for stacking weaker made hands, while c/r all-in lets top pair fold too easily. So yeah, just bet like 50 and shove the river (except check/call a heart).

Also, raise more preflop. In that game, you should be making it between 1.5x and 2x pot when raising QQ/JJ from the blinds in a limped pot. Playing those hands OOP vs. more than one opponent sucks.
