[durrrr]

By good fish I meant someone who is known to not be a big winner at all but supposedly was not awful... As the results show this was not really true (and he was awful donkey). But I wanted to see if check behind was standard (assuming he was decent like I thought at the start of the hand). I bet and almost immediately afterward I wished I had checked behind... this seemed by far the best line as I thought about it. Then he called me down with A high and made me want to reconsider. Not being results oriented... just wondering if you think turn bet is more +EV than a turn check (I obviously check if he has ~1k behind on turn, but he had only $687). I later played some more with this opponent and he made some more awful plays... in the future I definitely bet in this spot vs. him but I think I should check behind vs. your average unknown.
