Default Re: FPS checkraise?

Why I don't like it: You're generally only going to get an extra bet out of the villian if he holds a specific card on this board. Namely, the K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]. He might bet with the T, but call a river c/r? Not likely. And I think that any lower diamond is as likely to check through as bet (and not likely to call the raise).

Also, don't assume that your opponent has the flush just because he called 1 turn bet HU. I think most players would call with TP or even a paired J there, simply because there's no guarantee that you have a hand.
