Re: KQo - TP on monotone flop facing turn action
That's a really good point. During the hand, the little voice inside me screamed "FLUSH" when SB bet. But I didn't think I had enough info to fold, especially since it's possible I'm up against a King-rag. However, if I call a turn bet, I am setting myself up to call a river bet if a harmless card falls. So, it's going to cost at least two bets to see a show down. If I raise the turn, and I am still facing a lot of action, then I can fold easily (or alternately, if my turn raise is called, it's possible that a baby flush will check this river).
So, in either case (call turn / raise turn) I am setting myself up to invest two bets, but the raise option defines my hand much better. In this case, I happened to get "lucky" that MP3's donk raise saved me a bet.
