    Raise more preflop 4bb+1 bb for every limper. So make it $1.75.

    I either check behind on this flop or check behind on the turn. Not many hands can call the flop bet and most contain a J.

    Once I get called on the flop I definitely check behind the turn to try and see a cheap showdown.

    The turn check raise is a monster a lot of the time...

    If you check through the turn he will often put out a very small bet hoping you will raise.

    I'm definitely checking flop or turn.
