Why is this and advantage?

[ QUOTE ]

-you don't give any free cards


[/ QUOTE ]

this one is kind of iffy. I think that this is more of a concern when there's actually a chance we already have the best hand. That is not the case here.

-it costs the same as checking the turn and calling the river


[/ QUOTE ]

We should not be calling a river bet UI anyways, so this is irrelevant

[ QUOTE ]

-with position, you can show down your A high hands as cheaply as possible


[/ QUOTE ]
I don't think we should be looking to show down here UI

-you defend against river check-raises.
