Default Re: 10-20 turn play- 5 questions

Fantastic question, and in my opinion those that are auto-betting the turn here are missing the point entirely. (For what it's worth, I often bet the turn here, but I think it's close).

I think I bet the turn here with a strong ace, and check it, call the river (or bet a checked river) with a weak ace. AT is right in-between, unfortunately. If I'm bet and am checkraised . . . ugh. At 10/20 I guess I have to call it down. Any limit lower than that and I probably chuck it.

There just aren't many hands against which a turn bet is a value-bet, while there are plenty of folks that will bluff this river if you check it, or call down with a marginal hand after you've shown weakness on the turn.
