You are too deep to push efficiently the flop. I was thinking about c/c turn to induce bluff, but since you showed strenght at flop, villain probably would opt for cheap showdown, so I like it as played.

Hi all,

We have 2 options on the flop. We can check/call, which is by far the "safest" route OR we can bet/reevaluate the flop. I prefer bet/reevaluating as it's a limped pot. So I would bet potsize, and if I get raised enough I would 3bet all-in. This maximises fold equity and maximises the amount we pick up if our opponent decides to do something stupid, like raise his raggy ace "to see where he's at".
