deanp27:
it depends but we have position and what may be scare cards for us may also be scare cards for him, we will be able to narrow his holdings by his reaction/action on the turn.

also if he is on a draw our ace high may still have showdown value unimproved

TopPair2Pair:

Raise the flop/fold to jam. I prefer to this a float this shallow.

He"ll most likely fold. People are donk live never have it

I hate raise/flop folding as he is likely to 3/bet shove all draws (where he may take a free card on the turn).  He also shuts down w/ weak hands like underpairs where he bets flop to see where he is - in this case we win the hand when he checks the turn and we fire ~900+ to keep pressure on.

Flop is JT8...he"s led out on that flop and you have floated.

OK...let"s suppose the turn isn"t a Queen King.

Aren"t AKJT987 all scare cards for you?

Let"s suppose one of those falls and doesn"t make the flush.

He checks. Are you betting, if so how much and what are you hoping to represent?

Alternatively, if it"s a total brick (6 - 2) and he checks..same questions.

Finally, if it puts three to a flush out there, does this change your answers to the above?

Interesting discussion, I"ll be keen to see where it goes.

Regardless of turn, if we are checked to we are firing at it.  Scare cards for us r also scare cards for our opponent.  Obv if they call our turn bet, we have to shut down, but Id rather call flop/bet turn (where we can get him to fold a higher range when scare cards come (plus he prob doesnt re-shove draws on turn)) than re-pop on the flop where his 3-bet shoving range is considerably higher.
