    Default This is ridiculously standard... right?

    Just to solve an small argument. Should i have cont bet here? Both opps are pretty loose preflop, although i've only had 40 or so hands with them.

    I don't think it matters all that much

    the important question imo is, if you bet, how likely is it that you'll get raised by a Queen?

    If these ppl raise their top pair type hands postflop, then I think it's better to take a free card and hope to suck out vs Q10-type hands.

    If they're likely to flat call your c-bet, then c-betting is o.k. since you're still like 22% to win a quickly swelling pot.
    when the vpip's are high and the value bets are like razors, who can be safe?

    I often bet here when checked to in position, but I dont think it matters that much wether you check or bet

    Both players usually miss this flop, so I bet here almost every time. You often have the best hand, or you might get someone to fold a pocket pair.
