Default Re: 3/6 Stars laying down bottom set on turn.

Player-dependent, but a turn check is better here sometimes - especially against one of the blinds.

The cold-call of a bet and raise screams flush draw. I wouldn't check this turn behind and let a free river spade or a stray A, 5 or 6 in his hand ruin me. The only time I would consider checking behind here is if the opponent was very, very aggressive, and I could count on picking off a big river bluff bet and he would also not call a big turn bet with a draw.
