Hero ?
Here is my thoughts:
The standard play is to just to cbet on the flop. If the turn is not a K, A or spade then a check/raise seems best, because we still have lots of equity if behind and check/call sucks. Dourble barrel on the turn also sucks because the stack sizes are a bit awkward leaving us with 1/2 pot size bet on river if called. Also, a Dourble barrel will fold out hands that we beat (77 A8) that might sometimes bet turn for protection and initiative.
Another idea is to not cbet flop, but check raise instead. The idea is to get value from hand we crush that would have folded vs. cbet.
What is your play?
A.1) Cbet FLOP. Cbet TURN
A.2) Cbet FLOP. C/R TURN
B) C/R FLOP
