Flopping the nuts action table

I would check, it’ll usually check around which is fine. I think betting small has merit too.

Bet $10. If you check, even if one of them stabs at it, we can't check raise, and it still looks strong when we flat call, so we won't get any more value.

Bet small, and then check turn. Pray someone decides to try to rep your hand by betting big, or that someone improves to a straight, or lower boat.

How would you play KK here? It's hard for either V to have an ace when there are two on board. So we'd probably bet small, with plans to fold to a raise, or check fold the turn if our bet gets called. If either V thinks we're scared of the aces, they might try to rep having one, by stabbing turn when we check.

If one is a maniac and the other is a calling station, and they're both running good, we should take advantage of that. They could call with a surprisingly wide range, and decide to start betting the turn when there's $75 or more up for grabs and it looks like we're giving up.

So, bet small, check call turn, and then on the river, shake your head in a resigned fashion, like you're disgusted by how badly you're running, then quickly check again.

If no one bets turn, size way up on the river, to make it look like we're trying to steal it. Bet like 1.25x pot.

I bet $15. If they fold, so be it -- they probably didn't have a hand that could catch up, anyway.

A check is fine, too, if V2 is aggressive enough to bet this flop.
