Don't even know what to think about this play.
I really don't like raising big pre because at 888 people tend to shove on top of big raise, specially at the early stages of the STT.
I just flat hoping from a good flop.
OTF: I believe I have the best hand but since there are no draws on the boards, just check and hope to hear a bet from some other.
OTT: Almost sure to have the best hand but don't want to give away a free card for someone who is maybe drawing to a flush (since there are 6 players on the hand).
OTR: the flush doesn't come and a 9 hit some of my opponents range, which can have some suited connectors.
Some questions:
- Is a raise better pre ? Even with what I said about those fun players
- Is it a good play to lead the flop with a bet ?
- Is the bet size OTT good ?
- Is the bet size OTR good?
