    Default 5/10 - Extraction with nuts vs. fish - 150bb deep

    Boring hand, but... I'm bored. CO is 42/8/1.5 over 150 hands. Obviously calls a lot pre-flop but he hasn't showdown much and I didn't see how he got his stack. I've been aggressive and haven't shown down much either. Thoughts on extraction? Comments on cbetting vs. checking are welcome too.

    Full Tilt Poker - No Limit Holdem Ring game - Blinds: $5/$10 - 6 players - Converter

    Stack sizes:
    Hero: $1534
    UTG+1: $1809
    CO: $2044.35
    Button: $930
    SB: $2051.50
    BB: $1301

    Pre-flop: (6 players) Hero is UTG with K Q
    Hero raises to $35, UTG+1 folds, CO calls, Button calls, SB calls, BB calls.

    Flop: A J 2 ($175, 5 players)
    SB checks, BB checks, Hero checks, CO bets $125, 3 folds, Hero...

    Lighting sweet moneys on fire.
    I think cbetting here is better than checking. It's much harder to put you on a flush if you cbet. A c/r on this scary board just looks very strong.

    As played, I like this line: raise flop, check turn and lead river. If villain bets the turn, then call and c/r river.

    I know your not getting action much but I agree best move is cbet the flop because its the best line for any hand they actually play.

    If you want to get action bet the flop, a lot more hands call the flop bet then a C/R as a C/R looks so much stronger and will almost certainly allow villain to fold any one pair hand - and they wont have a good flush draw either.
