hand was posted in the NC thread w/o the info on MP and acidca said it was played badly on my part. If MP had a set or two pair I would have known before the river.

Whats everybody's thoughts/plans to extract the most.

In my defense, I'm a limit moron just trying to pick up NL.

well most of time you should just bet, given your read c/r the flop isnt bad neither is c/r the turn.

But usually i would just bet,bet,bet

I like a bet, bet , bet line for starters. Leading out gives him reason be be suspicious. I have noticed some of the aggro types like to defend against flop steals.

If he pops you on the flop I would consider letting him take the lead on the turn.

My theory on these big hands in tiny pots situations, is that your best hope of making any money has be to try to get the pot to a decent size by the river (sounds obvious enough), but it is hard to do that if the flop gets checked through.
