Default Re: What\'s your turn play?

I usually check behind on the turn and then call the river or value bet if checked to. Coordinated boards are tough because you can go broke so easily with just TPTk and you have a really hard time extracting value from hands weaker than yours because of how scarry the board is. So by checking behind and value betting/calling the river I'm hoping to get some value from hands that I'm ahead of without going broke to those I'm behind.

Exactly.

All betting does is fold hand you are ahead of.

He called the flop with something, and its probably not 2 hearts.

But wouldn't you not mind taking the pot down right now and not giving your opponent a free card on the river to beat you if he had something like 10J?

What would he make with JT on the river a 6 card super straight. The hearts is what you have to worry about, I would fire another T200 on flop because I fear the draws that are out there, you are calling a push from him but otherwise he will likely stay for T200 more with a lot of worse hands here and try to catch up.
