Default Re: TPTK, controlling the pot size question

[ QUOTE ]
If you're pretty confident he's not on a draw and either has a Q or a set then you surely still have to bet it? The check still gives a free card. You can't like any K, J, T?

Another danger the turn check has is it now hands him fold equity if he shoves the river which now becomes a more viable option. Now your range of possible holdings in his eyes has widened to include AK, JJ, TT, 99(?poss lower) AJ(?) all of which he's beating.

Do you call a river shove following your turn check?

No I don't call an all in on the river. But I might call up to $40 and definitely call $35 or less. And any K, J, or 10 on the river, and I check the river. Any real big bet on the river, I fold. Like I said, I'm not necessarily comfortable with this play and it goes against my normal apply pressure, more pressure, and more pressure style. I'm just playing around with it, and I really appreciate everyone's feedback.
