Question
You're playing in a six-max game online. It is folded around to the button, who makes it $8. You flat-call and the flop comes 7

.
What's the best way to play this hand for value?
Correct Answer: Bet
You flopped the nuts. Bet out - if your opponent has any sort of hand, he's not going to put you on the joint and he will likely raise you. If he does raise you then you can be sure he has some sort of hand and likely not just ace-high. At that point you can decide whether you want to raise again now or wait until the turn. Either way, betting out maximizes the value in this hand.
