Re: Bad Turn....
I assume you have the table covered (or at least CO)? You don't mention the stack sizes.
Preflop: Eh, marginal call depending on stack sizes.
Flop: $50 into a $170 pot with a flush draw out there? I'd bet $120-$170 into the pot unless you have a read that a weak lead will induce a big raise.
Turn: Obviously the only way you're going to win the pot outright is if you make CO fold. I don't think you're going to make CO fold a likely stronger A here due to the preflop raise especially since a check-raise push is giving him a good price $670:$300. A push looks -EV here especially given that it's possible CO got a cheap peel with a 9 or could possibly have a house. I like a check-fold here.
I'd like to know the thought process of making a weak lead with top and bottom pair...
