Is my flop bet too much? When I have raised PF and get a flop like this, I should c bet the flop. Is it good to end it here or check behind him?

Pots 2400, id bet more here. Heads up with top pair Im not going to try to get trappy, there is nothing wrong with taking it down here, with your bet if he calls what do you think then? Id bet about 1800, 3/4 of the pot, and with a push Id fold and a call I would slow way down unless I had a read that said otherwise.

I agree with andy about bet size, and i probably would have bet about 1600, just preference. I also don't think you can fold to a push with ur stack size. A-10+ would most likely reraise here pf, so i would consider a push to be A2-A9. If he has like a6 here, im probably going broke.

Reads would also help: what kind of hands is he calling ur raises with, and how often are u raising.

It has been back and forth. A limp here, a bet on the flop .. FOLD. A raise, a call .. a miss on the flop , fold to a bet. We pushed A 9 into each other in a previous hand with a 9 K K flop. He is not switching gears and is playing rather conservative. He did slow play two pair once, I checked it all the way down with a pair pf 7's. After reviewing alot of the hands, he is betting 1000 on the flop and some of tha hands showdowned he has hit something on the flop , mid pair, low pair, high pair shit kicker. He will bet heavy into the flop , of course if I miss... Iam not calling. This is repeatitive.
