  2. i prob lead out to, get max value when he has FD or lower flush. if he missed the flop i doubt many turns are going to get him to put money in and if they do hes putting in the minimum

    not every time we flop big are we able to get value from it.
     
  3. I've got to imagine that in the 100r, shoving pre would be optimal. Are you folding to a shove or calling a shove? r/f and r/c both seem pretty bad. Too many good players in the 100r will reshove bvb a ton.
     
  4. This is a standard cbet imo this flop hits some of your range and you gotta rep that you have some sort of queen, then
    if he makes a mistake by calling for a flush draw your getting max value on your hand , if the flush comes on the turn i would
    still lead out becuz to him it looks weird so if he shoves or calls again im extracting max value,
    in this case he prob didnt even have a heart or any type of queen so you just happend to get unlucky,
    obviously if u check your not getting much value because if he checks behind your giving him outs to draw for free.
    personally i wouldnt check becuz if he has ace hi flush draw and he hit then were putting ourselves in a tricky spot
    on the turn .
    i dont know im sure there are tons of other reasons those are just a few of why i wouldnt check this flop
  5. You had a loose hand. It was so lucky for you when your opponent had folded. So your bet at that time is a good dicision.
