| I have to say yes, you did the right thing. The biggest reason is that you thought out the play and had a reason for doing what you did. As you said, you are in a coinflip and as it played out even JJ ... |

If I it the flop with a decent hand I bet out, usually just a feeler bet if he calls, then I still bet smallish on the turn.
For ex. a 200 bet into like a 1,000 pot will usually take it down. |

| I don't mind the smooth call pre flop, you have position and are suited, let some suckers come in weaker than you. Flop bet 800 to 1000 and call a push or push on turn, DO NOT think about folding |
