    Not a lot you can do.

    Excepts ask yourself why he is check raising on that board, very very tough to laydown since many times your ahead.

    By only betting $20 into a $290 pot, you can't know.
    Bet $250 on the flop. This will make it easier to lay it down when he check/raises you all in. It's still a world class fold if you can make it but betting more can make it easier.

    You could play it slow and check behind, but getting it all-in on the flop isn't bad either, that's what I do most of the time. The 20 chip bet is no good though

    lol.. well doing such a gay bet on the flop isnt going to let u kno if ur beat or not lol, cuz hes probably gonna be raising such a small bet with any 2 cards.

    If you dont mind, what exactly were you thinking when you made that flop bet of 20? You didnt want him to fold or what?
    Lots of good rakeback options at http://www.rakeguard.com/?raf=KRE8R

    KRE8R probably has about seventy college funds in his NL5 roll.

    yeah i know the bet was small my plan was to make it look like a continuation bet so he could bluff at it or maybe had A 10

    A c-bet should be no less than 2/3 the size of the pot.

    Also, not much you can do as he's a donk for calling a 6x PFR will 33.

    In tournament play, a CB is 40-67% of the pot depending on the texture of the flop, not ~7%.

    In level 1, you don't know enough about your opponents and the stacks are too deep to CR, IMO. There also too bad to be leading out for less than 60% on this flop. That said, I don't know anyone who's not going broke here.
