I would be bet/calling this turn as well. This hand is semi-reminiscient of SpicyF's check/raising the river to save bets line. But I don't think it applies here (but, what do I know, I don't know when the hell the line applies because I suck at poker.)

Re: don\'t know if i played this one right either...
 

Yea bet the turn for sure. Too high of a chance you're ahead + chance he takes free card. I like the river checkraise but I think in Spicy's hand he had TP the whole time and his hand didn't improve in the way hero's does here. IE here you're not looking to save bets, you're looking to extract maximum value with what is almost always the best hand.

I didn't see the board pair on the river, and don't think this hand is the same as spicy's in any way but reading this did make the spicy hand pop into my head so I mentioned it.
