Default Re: Gutshot and over(s?)

Raising the turn here isn't a great idea, in my opinion, because the flop three-bettor is pretty unlikely to fold here. The free showdown effect is not important here because our hand doesn't have showdown value anyway (we're clearly not calling a river bet if we miss; the only value for a free showdown comes when we hit a K or something and want to show that down, but that will happen less than 10% of the time).
