Default Re: Good spot to wait for the turn?

[ QUOTE ]

In waiting for the turn, you're hoping your equity jumps way up. I don't see that happening here. Without reads, I hate this hand. I hate situations like this and probably suck at them.

hey PP I know we have been disagreeing a lot in these early days of SHSSSSH, and I've been drinking, but I can't think of many better situations in poker than to have JJ on an 8-high board on the turn against a couple of doofy [censored] that can't even keep a proper buyin.

a blank turn in a situation like this makes our equity go through the roof. a flush draw goes from having 35% on the flop to 18% on the turn. overcards from 23->12. all of this equity that drops lands in our lap. this situation is pretty much ideal and the cappage is a no-brainer (did you notice CO is about all-in too?)
