With an OESD [and a backdoor FD] this really should be a bet I would imagine. What hands are you betting here? What others are you checking behind besides ones that completely missed? The turn and river are definitely fine as played though.

[DaNutsInYoEye]

Why the hell are you checking that flop?

[gabe]

played fine, i bet the flop alot though

[sandstorm]

Rep that ace, especially with the OESD. As played not much to do.

[IowaSkinsFan]

With what strong hand are you checking the flop with? If the answer is none, I bet. If the answer is a few, I still bet probably.

The re-raise pre, check behind flop is wacky, unless you put him on "never folds after calling a three bet pre-flop"

I could see occaisionally checking behind the flop check with something like JJ-KK or even AJ to try to keep a showdown cheap.

Bet flop - you either win outright or sweeten the pot and create the option of taking a free card.
