Default 100/200 Choose your line

I'm not really happy with the line I chose.

UTG is tough.

Party Poker 100/200 Hold'em (4 handed) converter

Preflop: Hero is SB with A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].
<font color="#CC3333">UTG raises</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero 3-bets</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">UTG caps</font>, Hero calls.

Flop: (9 SB) 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 4[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
Hero checks, <font color="#CC3333">UTG bets</font>, Hero calls.

Turn: (5.50 BB) 2[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
Hero checks, <font color="#CC3333">UTG bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>

i think you have no other option then to checkcall the flop. i think the turn checkraise is close but the 2 is such an awful card. at least the board didnt pair though. id be much more inclined to do this if a paint card hit. still, i think checkcalling the turn is better. hes not folding a pocket pair and probably wont release a legitimate ace high holding.

I like to check/call all 3 streets. Obviously, checkraise if you hit...

It's 4 handed and utg has position, so he could be capping a decent range here. I could see utg playing hands that we beat such as KQ [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] like this. Maybe a lower ace?

I agree with check/call 3 streets ui, however I like donking better than checkraising if we make our flush. There is no way he will put us on a flush after check/calling the flop so we usually get 3 bets from an overpair and don't give him the option of either checking behind turn or taking free sd with the weaker end of his range.

I think checkraising either the flop or the turn is a mistake. The chances of him folding immediately to the turn raise are near zero in my opinion.
