Villian is totally unknown. He's on a couple tables but hasn't done or been involved in anything worth noticing. I couldn't think of a better line. I didn't c-bet because I didn't want to get blown off the pot by some awfully played draw.

Seat 10: melv P ($105.95 in chips)
Antes/Blinds
janjesber posts blind ($0.50), Eat me94 posts blind ($1).

looks fine. as u said another possibility is to lead flop and/or turn, just gets hard if opp is tricky.
if you want to be real low variance you can just fold the turn though i think that's a bit weak.

Because I have what might be the best hand but do not want to play for stacks as there are plenty of other hands that are either ahead or way ahead. Any reraise will scare me off my hand because I don't plan on calling anymore bets on an unimproved turn.
Also, by playing it like this looks like I could be the one slowplaying the monster and will keep villian in line while I am drawing to a better hand or getting a reasonably priced showdown.

Because that's a scary board and villain is likely to fold here 75% of the time. Therefore, letting him bluff is the most valuable way to play this.
I have seen K's, Q's, and mid pocket pairs here many times.
Standard.
