I'm not strong on the math side so anybody who could offer some insight would be appreciated.
I've been thinking about postflop, and it's really hard. If you just call and get two overcalls, the pot will be $310 and you'll have $70 behind. Folding a ragged flop getting better than 5:1 is gross. You could shove and maybe get some folds, but it's a dry side pot, so that doesn't necessarily accomplish much. You could check-call, but again, it's a dry side-pot, so villains are unlikely to be bluffing, and $70 isn't nothing.
I think I'm checking all the way in a friendly, "hey let's check this down" kind of way (unless we make a pair) and muttering to myself and calling if someone bets.
