    Default UB $120 Bounty: TPTK Facing Weird CR

    Villian was limping a lot and seemed weak after the flop. Otherwise, I don't know him because I only play cash on UB.

    How bad is my flop check? And is this turn more elementary than I'm making it out to be? Are these questions a clear reason to just fold preflop? LOL.

    If he's weak post flop wouldn't you just want to keep it simple for him and let him call a flop bet from you? Effectively I don't like the flop check.

    Such a huge check raise on such a blank card. M of 20 if you fold... if he's weak I guess you just have to give him credit for better than a pair. Committed to calling the river after this... ugh.

    Has he been throwing his weight around at all?

    I think I have to fold here.

    The texture one he's either check/folding or check/raising, I figured.

    Not folding PF.

    Betting the flop...

    Without a read, I'm folding the turn. Looks like a set.

    If he's played sets differently before, though, I'm pushing. His CR looks like a monster or a bluff.

    I play the same and also don't know what do on turn. I guess I fold to CR whilst swearing.

    i think if you're gonna check behind this flop, you have to be willing to shove here. you can't underrep your hand and then fold when they put pressure on you

    The guy who limps too much isn't folding after raising. I should've folded PF and I knew it at the time.
