Can you elaborate a bit on "taking the pot down" and how it makes you money?
After I was the pre-flop raiser, and UTG checked the flop, I thought I could represent the A and win the $0.95 in the pot, especially since he had been playing a lot of hands.
So you basically tried to bluff him off anything worse than a pair of aces?
I can see what you are saying, and that would be a stupid thing to do, bluff someone off the only hands I am beating, but as meeloche said, people do call with all sorts of crap that my JJ could still be ahead of. I was pretty sure that if i checked behind on the flop, he would bet the turn and try to take the pot. In this case that would be good as another J came out, but if the J hadn't come, would I then have to fold? As I said, I'm new to cash games, so I welcome all advice, but to me, checking the flop seems weak.
