Default Re: I catch my overcard... now what?

Raise turn...what's the point in waiting for the river to raise a LAG?

[/ QUOTE ]

Because a LAG will likely continue betting on the river, so....

1) You extract 1 more bet from a bluff
2) Generally, you are less likely to be 3-bet on the river than the turn.
3) You have the option of calling the river if the board turns scary.
