how can you not like the turn?

[/ QUOTE ]

After a typical player raises UTG 6-handed, and bets/3-bets the flop, I go into c/c mode. I expect to be ahead infrequently but often enough to call down. Also, if I am ahead I prefer to keep feeding him rope and let him hang himself. The board isn't very draw heavy, especially to the type of hand that raises UTG preflop.

The OP's post didn't include a read, so I'm giving my thoughts on an unknown opponent.

Villian was 75/30/2.0 over 100 hands, so his UTG raise isn't scaring me that much. If he had 3-bet the turn, I would have only call/called (still thinking I'm ahead, but not sure enough to put in more than 2BB)

After he called the turn CR, I was very sure I was ahead and thought I would go for the trifecta. I normally bet this river, but thought this was as good a chance as I would have to squeeze in a 3rd CR. After being checked to, he hesitated for a few seconds and then threw in the river bet, and the dream was realized.
