Heres a short question, you do realise we have 3 streets we can bet postflop right?
well we bet because he will call us on atleast the flop and turn with loads of hands that we beat. yes he only bets if he is infront but he will call with lots of trailing hands and yes he will sometimes fold but if he folds he likely wasn't gonna bet anyway
Ok, I see what bj is saying and I see all of our points.. but the OOP is the biggest factor here, the flop sucks for us. One thing that I did want to add, he doesn't only bet if he is in front. IMO, which is worth a pile of horse crap, if I am in position, ace shows on the flop and even without the ace, it is checked to me, especially quickly, I'm repping the ace and betting, whether I have it or not.

The size of my bet would be very read dependent though.

Bj is correct this is a very read dependent situation also, personally this is one of the situations that gives me the most trouble.
