I think it was in a daniel negranu video where he talked about when you hold a decent pair and the flop is say something like 10109 you should just generally check this and play it passively and keep it small and call of some bluffs. I think he said it was because your opponents wont really pay you off unless they hit there trips and even if you do check the chances of them hitting the card they need is low and you will win end up winning most of the time. Does this still apply to a short stack 6 max game? I just got pocket AA and the flop was jj9 i checked and called a half pot bet on the turn and valued bet 1/4 pot on the river after he checked it to me. The villain showed that he turned a pair of 5 but he also flopped a flush draw. At 5c 10c 6 max shallow stack should i be checking with over pairs on flops like this? Im sure i could have got him to chase his flush draw for the wrong price and end up winning a much nicer pot. We were both 40bb
