JJ and a scary flop

[donkbee]

Is the check on the flop a bad idea? Perhaps a bet to see where I stand and then fold to reraise? What if he just calls? How do you play this?

yeah, don't think that's a continuation bet type of flop. Your stack is still very healthy, let him bully that if he wants.

[drmcboy]

Yeah, mostly I'm betting the flop and then giving up if called. I don't hate check fold, that is le bad flop

[nogenius]

I would play it exactly as you did, especially if it was a $5 + .50.

[baudib]

That's a dumbass bet on his part.

[Pingviini]

Well played.

You should include some sort of reads especially with this kind of hands..

That's a dumbass bet on his part.
