flop. He checks; you c-bet $110. He check-raises to $300.
What should you do?
Correct Answer: Call flop/call turn
This is the best way to play this hand. If your opponent is bluffing, flat-call now and let him bluff the rest of his chips off on the turn. If he does have a hand, well, you’re getting it all-in anyway, so you may as well wait for the turn. All raising the flop does is fold out potentially worse hands. So flat-call this flop and get him to shove the turn.
