You're in EP/MP at a 6-max table (50NL on Empire). You hold:

You limp, two other limpers behind you, SB folds and BB checks.

Flop comes:

:Ad:

BB checks it to you. What's your move?

This hand came up last night and I bet out half the pot. All folded.

I'm now thinking that this is a spot to slowplay a bit. It's an easy flop for anyone without an Ace (or a weak Ace) to get away from so you almost have to check here and risk giving a free card and hope that one of the people to act after you bets.

If the flush card hits then you may have to shut down but that said, the :Ad: is already out and that would be card the flush monkey would probably have if he were going after the flush.

Thoughts?
