I got my TP Raised on this flop, and I called because folding felt too weak here. Not sure if I should be treating monotone boards differently here. I called, and when he checked turn I felt like he mighthave A spades with a small pair or something. So I miss clicked and bet turn half pot. (Was suposed to be 3/4). When the spade came I pretty much gave up and checked the river.

My question is how do you handle these monotone flops in situations like this?

I think it's fine. I don't think we should fold to flop raise and the hand is certainly too weak (and too strong) for 3betting. The turn bet is also fine, I think, because I believe he would proceed with aggression there if he would have a big hand, so we are most likelly betting for value and protection. I would be happy to check back this river.

I am not sure about the call on flop.There are stronger Qx and possible stronger FD or ready made flush.
