Nope, not at all. I know everyone is giving me advice to help me. If a Jack doesn't come up, many other cards still concern me. For instance, a 10, a Queen, an 8 and an Ace. If neither of those come up, I'll check to see where the other players stand. I made my point on the flop, now it's their turn. If someone makes a decent bet, it might be a good chance to raise becuase it's a great chance I STILL have the best hand.
Once again, you're UTG - checking is the last thing you ever want to do, unless you're planning to fold to any serious bet that is made. Given that getting to the flop may have been a mistake ( I'm not necessarily agreeing with that idea, but discussing why is a longer discussion than I want to try when it doesn't relate to this thread), you want to maximize your position by betting. A bet coming from an early position will get more respect than from the button, so use that. I think you have to bet out on the flop - there's shouly only be one hand that could beat you out there (QJ), because every other better hand should have raised preflop. I would have no problem making the pot-sized or better bet. You should take down the pot. A number of hands might call or min-raise you, but you're ahead of most of the likely ones (QJ should be the only hand that would raise a large amount).
If you see the turn, here's how I play it:
8 or lower, I'd say keep firing. Its extremely unlikely that anyone has turned a better hand.
9 - no contest - you've pretty much locked in the best hand, so keep betting, but don't push people out.
10, J, Q A - its check-fold time, unless you are going against someone who consitently tries to
bluff/buy out the pot.
K - there's only one real hand to beat you (KT) -but if you figure out the odds that all 4 K's are out there, AND that the one person who has the other K has one of the 3 T's that breaks you... Its slim. Play just like the 9.
