There are no draws to speak of on this flop, and it’s a small pot, plus I will very often have an 8 when I bet the flop, all of which make it unlikely he is bluffing the flop. And I don’t think he ever raises flop for value with less than an 8, because my range for continuing to a raise consists of exactly trips or better. The only reason I don’t give up on the flop, which I really probably should, is the chance that he’s raising a worse 8. If he were, I think he’d have to slow down after I call. Again, there are no draws to protect against, so if he has trips with a rag kicker, he is way ahead/way behind.

Cliff notes: The board is dry, and the pot is small.
