Is this line okay to play? I just raise flop occasionally to see were i stand in the hand, I have a feeling of tpgk or two pair after turn bet.

Need a little more info on villains to really answer your Q's here

Your line is pretty bad imo. For one Im probably not raising this flop with your hand and if I do Im 100% firing this turn.

^ +1, not a v good spot to c/r flop and once you basically hit the gin barrel card ott you should continue bluffing to get him off 2x, 4x, mid pocket pairs, Ax and some draws + you picked up equity.

btw your description indicates that your thinking process is somewhat flawed, i'd recommend watching some training vids and reading more hu threads, esp the beginners thread (sticky at the top of this subforum). GL

Thanks for answer. very valube info.

Would the best line be ch/f flop?
When would a ch/r be a good move? If flop comes ragged or there would be a t instead of k on flop so i have two overcards?

As a standard I c/f but there are merits to c/c if he isnt barrel happy.

c/r a flop of like 872 with a hand like J9 is more the type of spot you wanna c/r because there are sooo many cards u can barrel. Anytime you have over cards and backdoor equity ifs not gonna be a terrible time to c/r if they are not playing back at you

Honestly besides the 2 spades, its not really that bad of a spot to win because its going to be hard to call without having at least a k or maybe a mid pocket pair pending how agg your opp is. You also have to bet that turn since it have you the open ended str8 draw and on the river i would c/f

sry for the typos.

i also dont like raising this flop with our hand but if we do def fire 100% turns
