Bet/fold is the best option I think.

i also like the bet-fold line

but i would make my check raise a little bigger on the flop. if you are going to squeeze here, then i think full pot is the best option.

besides QJ getting there, that card isn't that bad for you, because hands like TJ will definitely now call another bet, and only gutshots got there.

Only takes you 10 seconds and makes hands sooo much easier to read... :)

Bet enough to commit yourself Trishan.

I think you are good often enough with Top Top on this type of board.

Past experience with players is important - but KQ and all sorts of Paint hang around at these levels, just hope they don't have QJ K10 etc..

I doubt I fold to a shove, but that's just me.

Aaron the bet/fold line is probably optimal but there was $8.40 in the pot and I had $8.19 behind so once you bet in this particular case you commit yourself and the money is going in regardless.

I bet $5.50, got one fold but the other player shoved and I called $2.69 to see him roll [kh][10h].

Makes sense, nice flop & even nicer turn (for him/her) - did a Q or A fall on the river just to twist the knife a little? ;)

Good point, didn't notice the stack size left. You can probably just shove turn

I can't remember the river, I was too busy testing the strength of my keyboard and the wall.
