Default Re: Wynn 150-300 -- I hate limit hold\'em

I much prefer to bet the turn here after the flop action.
1. Some better hands will fold.
2. If he is drawing to a flush as well, it hides your hand better and you can get more bets in on the river if you both hit. Plus you get the bet in now vs. hoping he will bluff the river.
3. Given the strength you shown, it will be difficult for him to CR the turn w/o a monster, so you can take the free showdown if he calls the turn, which I assume once he calls the turn any better hand than yours unimproved will call the river so betting again on the end seems pointless.
4. If he does CR the turn you have plenty of outs to improve.

Either way, if you are going to play the flop the way you did you need to bet the turn. Otherwise, just call the flop 3B and raise the turn.
