    I like checkraising better, if you do think someone will bet. As played not much that you beat calls you, since the str8 is pretty obvious.
    Nine to five is how to survive - I ain't trying to survive / I'm trying to live it to the limit and love it a lot //

    Can offer RB deals on most sites, PM me.

    Then again it is 25NL... I don't mind a 3/4 pot bet here, it's kind of a swing for the fences but that's not a bad thing. Someone will call often enough to make it worthwhile.
    Some days it feels like I've been standing forever, waiting for the bank teller to return so I can cash in all these Sklansky Bucks.

    Meh, maybe some donks will call w/o the J. Depends.

    I don't mind leading for ~$3 into 3 villians on that flop.

    Agree. The c/c flop, lead turn line is transparent. Build the pot for when you hit, or take it down on the flop.
