There´s no reason to bet the flop then as far as I know stars NL100 at the moment. Those mono-boards are the ones that make them all discover what bluffs and semi-bluffs are, they just do it so often, plus they just call with their monster so very often.

I think you can check this flop and call 2 streets.

As played, fold.

I think the reasoning for more is that it makes the villan less likely to bluff/semi-bluff raise you.
