Question
In a six-max game online, it's folded around to the aggressive but bad player in the small blind. He raises to $8 and you three-bet to $30. He calls and the flop comes A
3
5
. He checks.
What should you do?
Correct Answer: Check
The ace is obviously bad for your hand. If you bet, worse hands are rarely going to call. That, and you do have a redraw to the second nut flush. If you bet and are check-raised, you may be forced to fold - forfeiting your equity in the pot. So just check through, and if you can get this all the way to showdown you'll be laughing.
