Default Re: 10 10...check raise turn? (no reads)

Any reads? With none, you must bet the turn. Having it checked through would be a huge mistake. Also, if it's checked to the person on your right and he bets, then what do you do?

A bet to my right?

I think I would go ahead and raise either trying to win the pot right there, or making him pay if he or anyone else is on a flush draw, or a T4 or Q4.

How'd I do?

Re-examine your thinking. Why would you want anyone to fold on the turn? Anyone who would draw out on you has a 4% chance to do so, worst case. Everyone else is throwing in dead money, which you want to maximize

What you are rooting for is exaclty the opposite of what you say: You _want_ someone to stay with and make a flush, and you _want_ someone with the smaller full houses to stick around, because they will all pay you off.
