If he is just c-betting, he'll likely check on the turn and you can take it down with a bet.

[/ QUOTE ]I wonder about this. It may be true, but should it be true? When you make a continuation bet and are simply called, do you routinely make another bet on the turn? You should, shouldn't you? Otherwise, you'll be too easy to read. (And, always check raising the turn might be even more expensive than always betting the turn -- and less profitable when your continuation bet is based on a real hand. Also, when your opponent is on a draw, you don't want to check and risk giving him a free card.)

Anyway, I don't think you can be confident that a continuation bet will be followed by a check on the turn.
