Sure we do. Add the pot to the lowest of the two stacks, because this is our potential profit.

On the flop, you have two lines to take throughout this hand.

A) Check flop. The check is to induce a bluff from AK or AQ, fold to any A,K, or Q that turns or rivers. Check flop. See 5 community cards with little to no betting = where are we in this hand? Checking masks your hand, but it also masks your opponents hand.

B) Bet flop (take back control of betting). If villain calls flop, he is slowplaying a bigger PP, or drawing to an assortment of AK's. Bet flop, villain c/r, easy fold, we know where we are. Bet flop, villain takes control of betting by either raising or leading, we have a good idea where we are.

Pending the type of player (aggressive/passive), we make our decision. With little reads (250 hands), I lean towards the aggressive option.
