Hey all,

what should I have done on the flop. I think the check call is pretty bad.

Is it check fold? Do we have a lot of cbets on this kind of board. Maybe with my blockers an because its rainbow?

C/f flop. On 3bet pots OOP when flop is mid straight board, you should pretty much check all your range.

Thank you.

i think the flop is a fold, your draw is to the wrong end of the straight and you could already be dominated.

I think check fold is the correct play, no nut drawing hand on the flop except back door hearts and also OOP.
