UTG: $69.31 (138.6 bb)
MP: $61.41 (122.8 bb) No sample.
CO: $50 (100 bb)

Preflop: Hero is SB with K♠ J♠
UTG folds, MP raises to $1.75, 2 folds, Hero raises to $5, BB folds, MP calls $3.25

Flop: ($10.50) Q♠ 5♠ 6♠ (2 players)
Hero bets $5.50, MP calls $5.50

Turn: ($21.50) 6♣ (2 players)
Hero bets $13.75, MP folds

I think I played this hand BAD post-flop. What would be the suggestions and more importantly - WHY ? Thanks !.

Hi

Preflop: Hmm size is too small. You should probably make it at least $6 with your entire range. I guess with this exact hand a smaller raise size could make more sense but in general we want to have balanced preflop sizes.

Postflop: Mostly a bet-size issue. Turn bet is too big and you look committed here. I would just halfpot twice and push the River.

Hey, and what about CHECKING this flop ? Doesn't make much sense ?

OR, after betting flop, CHECKING the turn ? Maybe we get a bluff here sometimes, no ?

Well you have not provided any good reason to slowplay. So I don't think you should as a default play.

Mixing it up once in a while with Flop checks is fine. Same applies to betting Flop and check-pushing the Turn. But usually I prefer having some sort of read that villain bets too often when checked to in these situations.
