    With position I call and play a turn. I think about folding to a big bet since most UTG raises are tighter or bet $22ish to any check.
    Playing live . . . thanks alot Bin Laden.

    I like to call the flop and bet/raise a heart or non-broadway turn. If it's a big second barrel on a blank turn I often fold to an unknown.

    Lately, I've been re-raising C-bets alot more. I would rather end the hand than wait for another card. If he calls, I check and see if he wants to check it down. That will be about how much $$ I want to put into the hand. The problem with this is what do you rep to re-raise, not much that would just call the preflop raise. He may be just trying to draw another card cheap and you may not want to get to $$$ involved until the turn or river.

    I play it the same. Call the flop bet, and bet the turn if checked to. Raise the turn if another heart comes. (unless villain is a fish and can't fold, in which case I probably just give up on a second barrel)

    Geth is pretty straightforward. I don't think he would second barrel without the goods. However, I would like a turn raise if a falls.

    raising or calling r both ok
    I got more flava than fruitstripe gum

    raise if villain is good and aggro

    call if villain is bad and will check turn when he whiffed the flop
    when the vpip's are high and the value bets are like razors, who can be safe?

    No hindsight for the blind.
    I think folding isn't a big mistake against an unknown.
