OK it was late last night and I can see your reasoning. Like you said - not an easy one.

So what sort of amounts are you prepared to check call? I know a player I play with in the casino that if his bet gets called on one street he just bets much bigger on the next.

Easy to play when u have it but if u have some sort of draw he's a nightmare to play. A good player might be betting bigger to not give me odds if he puts me on a draw but players like this you almost want to call as their bets are not representing their hand.

I don't particularly believe in betting to see where you are at but in the above example with some players you can use timing on the internet so you bet and get snap called you know they have the ace.

Also out of interest I agree with the 3 categories but I had a hand today where I was BB with 89 and the flop was 2 4 8. I bet out but it wasn't for any of them reasons. More a case of I was going to re-evaluate on the turn but he came over the top and I had to fold.

Do you just check in this situation?
