Re: you ever get that feeling...
Take the free card on the flop and fold the turn unimproved. This is a massive amount of chip spewing even if it happened to work this time.

Can I really just bet-fold the turn? I agree that if I get raised I am almost certainly behind but, in that case, I quite likely have 5 clean outs and will be getting 10:1 to call the...

Horrible turn fold - KK?
BB Seems like a decent TAG. Something like 24ish/15ish. Hasn't done anything out of line. Is this a brutal fold? Please try and put TAG on a range when you tell me how bad it is though.

Re: call this river bet?
It seems to me you have to call. You're calling the turn becuase villian might be doing this with a draw, spades or a picked-up club draw, or he has a T and thinks he's still best or maybe hit a...

I'd probably call the flop and raise the turn. Good chance your hand is ahead, and you want him to fold that 6-outer on the turn. Hell, he may even fold a better hand like A9 or so.

Why don't you check-raise the flop? You have two good backdoor draws and two overcards. If he 3-bets you, you can check-fold the turn UI.
