Id rather have struggles c betting this kind of boards, we get CR often but checking behind also give the person oop the first bet win option anyone ideas? what line to take?

I think that with these stack sizes and at this stage of the tourney, I am cbetting 90% of the time. Sizing is fine by me as well.

Not so sure I am just giving up this flop, though. What is your read on the villian? What does he limp flat here with (Ever read the poker book “Limp flatting your way to victory?”. I haven’t either). Would he do this light? Or with complete air? Dont get me wrong, i am probably folding, but it is not a 100% certainty. I have won a not insignifcant number of pots in this situation when I pegged my vllian for a raise with air, or a flush draw that he shuts down on turn.

i see what u mean but whats ur line i assume if he barrels turn which doenst improve us we have to fold ourselves, but if he checks u try to stab at it? villain pretty unknown so without any reads this is quite a strong line he is suggesting by CR also the CR int that big and with anything except nothing i almost have to call.. so do we assign strengt to this or not?

If he's unknown it is then easy– you fold to the raise on the flop, imo. But you still cbet the way you did.
