Re: good looking flop - worst possible outcome

depends on the villains
if you c/r (which isn't mandatory) the turn card is lame but betting is prob fine
river c/f

Re: good looking flop - worst possible outcome

i like c/c flop. c/c turn. c/f river.
if the flop chks around and turn blnks, obv bet for value

on the flop, you either have the best hand or twelvish outs (9 if he has set, 15 if he has AA, 12 if he has aq). don't think there's much of a reason to try to get any of those hands to fold.
so basically, w the c?raise you're getting value out of qt/t8 and fl draws, but you open the betting action for the times when he's strong and might 3bet you. +, unless you make a flush, you're often gonna have tpgk in a bloated pot, which could be tricky to play (sometimes you might fold to a bluff, sometimes you might call w the 2nd best hand).
i mean, are you cRaising here w qjo? if not, not sure I understand the raise
