    Default IM suppose to check here right?

    No reads on villan, just sat down at table. I thought this is the kind of flop that Im suppose to slow play. Kind of happy that he wasnt full stacked. Also, please let me explain that Im not posting this cause Im being results oriented or becuase its a beat, Im justing checking to make sure I took the right line on the flop.

    SB ($25.45)

    checking is ok. i'd bet it though cuz of the fact that i c-bet most flops to keep it consistent. plus there's tons of hands villain calls here. KJ J9 Tx, FD, gutshots ... all sorts of weird stuff ...

    and when he randomly shows up w/ aa u stack him.

    I agree with marshall. You want to be betting the flop with your nut hands so your c bets are given credit. But once in a blue moon its not that bad to slowplay a hand like this. Although your stacking him anyway if you bet this flop.
