You do not need the call button on this hand.

And I didn't use it [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]. But immediately after capping the flop then having both players call me down when I led the turn and river I though, "I could have gotten an extra BB out of that hand by check/raising the turn" My thinking may have been results oriented because I'm 99% sure it would have worked. I guess what I'm really asking is there ever a time in situations like this when just calling the 3-bet on the flop then check/raising the turn with your monster is a better play than capping and leading? I've seen it work a few times, but I'm always deathly afraid of the turn getting checked through.
In this hand the BB had QQ, and if an A or K fell he likely would have checked, and I'd have missed out big. I guess it's a pretty marginal situation either way and I should be getting bets in when I know they're going in.
