As a result, I've decided to make up some hands here because I'm not sure how to handle these situations. I'm hoping this is okay since the flops are almost all the same and hero is in LP in every hand except #5 (I'm more likely to be in LP in these spots, so that's one reason why most of the situations show hero in LP). Villains in the hands are unknown, and effective stack sizes are $300.
Hand #1:
Two players limp, hero raises to $21 on the BTN with A8, both limpers call.
Flop comes T63
Both limpers check to you. Do you c-bet?
Hand #2:
One player limps, hero raises to $18 in the CO with AJ, the BB calls, the limper calls.
Flop is T63
Both limpers check. Do you c-bet?
Hand #3:
Two players limp, hero raises to $21 on the BTN with 98
It's checked to hero on a T63 flop. Do you c-bet?
Hand #4:
2 limpers, hero raises to $21 with A5 on the BTN, both limpers call
Flop comes T63 and it's checked to hero. Do you c-bet?
Hand #5:
Hero raises to $15 in EP with AK, 2 players in LP call
Flop comes T63 and you are first to act. Do you c-bet?
GRUNCH
1: depends on players. If they are tricky or sticky, no. If they are passive, yes.
2: yes. Two overs and a back door flush draw.
3: no. Take the free card and try to hit the gut shot
4: yes. Nut flush draw, this is a great flop for you. Bet and build the pot a little, possibly take a free turn.
5: no, check. vs love to put you on AK. They will float here. Check, and maybe get a free card or maybe check raise if the right kind of V bets at you. Check fold is not the worst here. I feel that 'giving up' with AK OOP isn't a big mistake when whiff the flop.
