I like to raise this type of flop with SDs and a FD up to $8-$10.

$10 into a $5 pot?

Why do you represent a draw with a set? Bet/3-bet flop ai.

[Cocco_Bill]

why are you check calling this draw heavy flop?

[drmcboy]

if he is rocky, this is either a C-bet and you may as well fold him now, or he has an overpair and you want to get the money in before over turns off. For these same reasons, I would lead rather than CR. Are you worried you're beat? If he shows 77, you should be getting stacked.

Lead this flop, its very draw heavy, or at least c/r that mofo to get some money into the pot on the flop, because soooooo many turn cards kills your action!

learn to build a pot to get all the money in on later streets limit-boy. :P

$10 into a $5 pot?

I used to think that too, but it's not a $5 pot after you act...first you call $2 which makes the pot $7 and then you raise to the size of the pot, so you bet 2 + 7 = $9, for a pot size raise.

If you think from his perspective, he is now facing a $7 call into a $14 pot, just like if you had led $7 into a $7 pot.
