Default Re: Do I cap this suited ace preflop?

There are 11.25 BB in the pot on the turn. It's checked around to Hero who bets. Assuming he has 8 outs (discounting the 4h) and 46 unknown cards, our drawing odds are 1:4.75. He bet 1BB into an 11.25BB pot for pot odds of 1:11.25. I think the pot is large enough to justify a bet on the turn and its not to force people out.

In a smaller pot, I might check the turn here, but that pot is huge now and it's likely to get shown down even when the case h appears. You can dump it when you miss the river and bet again when you improve.

I've read a few posts where people thought it was a mistake to bet here. Why is that?
