I feel like I'm missing something, but why not bet the turn?

[dmk]

When SB calls 2 cold, I figure him for a draw, and I think they all hit on the turn.

I basically asked myself what I would do if I got checkraised, and I don't like vomit in my mouth, so I checked. Bad?

What size skirt do you wear?

[dmk]

Fine, so I bet and SB raises, I have to call. Now SB bets and MP1 calls, what do you do? What do I accomplish by betting out here?

BURN!

[dmk]

Yes, he burned my by giving me absolutely no advice on how to play the hand differently, despite his obvious opinion of my playing it poorly.

[MoreWineII]

I don't know how bad it is, but I go ahead and bet the turn. Couple the fact with you might have the best hand with the fact that you do have redraws if you're behind, and I think it's a bet.

Am I the only one here who doesn't get the flop raise? 4SB pot, twoflushed with none of your suit and you've got middle pair. Second pair for you completes a number of draws.

Someone explain it to me like I'm 2. Why raise here?

You have to bet the turn. Why do you immediately put an unknown who cold-calls a flop on a draw? Why do you immediately think the 9/images/graemlins/heart.gif completed his draw? He might have 89 and paired up, and you're giving him a draw to a Q or 7. You bet because he could be an idiot who called the flop with a Jack.

If you get checkraised and you don't improve you still call because SB might be an idiot or drunk or getting head and there's 13-1 BB in the pot when it gets to you and you have two pair.
