Re: QQ v unknown on scary board
[ QUOTE ]
Why did you check the turn? Villain is often going to be on a draw or have called the flop with a weak pair. If we check we're opening ourselves to being bluffed out on the river. And if we get checkraised on the turn it's not really going to be a disaster folding our potentially dirty gutshot and set outs.

I check the turn because I give villan maybe a K [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] with the flop call. The Q [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] is possible too. Basically, I'm giving the unknowns at 10/20 more credit than the once I used to see. Also, this guy called the flop bet, could have an ace. If the turn weren't a king, I think its a pretty easy bet-fold. But that king really sort of sucks. If I'm ahead, he's drawing to few outs. If I'm not, I have a chance to improve.
I don't think checking this turn is horrible. But this is why I posted it...
