Hero ?

Looks very weak, but best to check/fold against him? If he bets I'm often behind and drawing to 6 outs or backdoor flush.

Hey Outspan,

Check/fold is fine here. It's important to realise that x/f does not mean that we are giving up on the hand. We are checking because we hoping he checks back and we can play against his checking back range. With the A:hK:d we may opt to cbet.
