Hi,

I dont like the cbet on the flop, because this flop is too good to villain's call 3bet range. But I dont like the checkback, because if he bets I cant do anything on the turn and the river.

What is the best line in this situation?

I agree that this is a bad flop for you. But how to act should be down to balance.

For example if you check back this flop you also need to think about the other flops you check back. If it's only weak flops you check back then you have to fold the turn no matter what. Your opponent knows you are weak and he can pretty much always barrel you off by the river since you are never going to have spades or a straight in your range of flop checks.

Also how wide are you 3 betting preflop? This is certainly a flop you can rep having something if your range is wider than aces and kings.

So if your opponent is pretty smart then you do have to bet/fold this flop. Against aggressive opponents this is probably the best line because they will attack boards like this a lot.

The only good river for you is one where the board pairs.
