I know monotone flops are typically checked. But what about OOP in a spot like this? Even a small pair with a club is nearly even money. So mostly betting here? If so, how much? Thanks-

SB: 108 BB
Hero (BB): 102.5 BB
UTG: 210 BB
MP: 108.52 BB
CO: 72.54 BB
BTN: 109.26 BB

SB posts SB 0.5 BB, Hero posts BB 1 BB

Pre Flop: (pot: 1.5 BB) Hero has A

fold, fold, fold, BTN raises to 3 BB, fold, Hero raises to 10 BB, BTN calls 7 BB

Flop: (20.5 BB, 2 players) K

Hero?

Either check or bet small, anywhere from 1/4th-1/3rd . Would lean towards betting this hand

Not sure what you mean by "I know monotone flops are typically checked." I would probably mix this flop between 20% pot and check. In general, population tends to misplay monotone flops a lot vs very small sizings.

IIRC you’re supposed to c-bet monotone flops with normalish frequencies for 1/3, with lots of stuff mixed in there. Not sure how 3-bet pot affects it but I think it’s probably similar

Bet 1/3 on flop and continue with 2/3 bet on non club turn.
