Defending against floats (defending your flop/turn checks)
You're in EP with something like AK or AQ; raising preflop nets you a single non-donk, solid caller who you know can and will use position to pick up pots. Moderately loose player who will play SCs in position.
You have been cbetting and picking up a fair number of pots on the flop uncontested but on a recent hand, someone has picked off your cbet with a float or c/r.
Heads up to frop pairs one of your hole cards (assume top pair) on a
scenario 1) draw-free board
scenario 2) slightly coordinated board
scenario 3) monotone fugly masterpiece (and you don't have the flush draw)
Do you tend to bet, or not bet, any one of these flops?
How do you proceed if
- your flop bet is flat called?
Subsequent to this, how often would you use a turn c/r to protect your checks (or is a better goal c/c to reasonable showdown)? Do you lead the turn?
