Default Re: interesting turn card

[ QUOTE ]
My first assumption here is that the turn doesn't give him a flush. (I know he might, but I'm coming around to the point of view that when you shut down because a flush is possible you lose a lot of value from your good hands.)

this may be true in general, but here the board is so dry other than the flush draw. villain will usually c/r with a hand like 77. the only check/calling hands are A2, a flush draw, maybe A4/54, or air/overcards. i think the odds are good that villain now has a flush, and i don't want to be moved off my 4-outer. and i don't want to go broke if he does have it.

but the rest of your post hits why i checked behind pretty well.
