7) You have an Overpair/TP. Call down the turn check-raise.

I too have issues with this statement. While in many cases this is totally appropriate in MANY case it's not and I'm the KING of making great calldowns!

11. Turn actions tend to reveal the truth!

Getting raised or check-raised on the turn is a very bad thing unless you have a monster. You need a solid reason for continuing. This means...
1. The pot is HU and you have a read of LAG, maniac or unpredicatble tricky.
2. Good pot odds/ mplied odds to justify trying to draw out or hang onto the slim chance you have the best hand.
3. The turn card created a few DRAWS that could provide a good semi-bluff opportunity to an otherwise solid player.
4. You turn bet looked like a positional bluff/ or desperate continuation bet and a the player has a hand that can beat overcards but not your hand.
