c/r the turn, not the river

That's what I was thinking.

And this is because.......?

I think the poster should fold the same type of hands on the turn that he will fold on the river. 79o, 7Qo, mabye T4o - a check raise will definately fold alot of weak pair type hands from the poster on both the turn and the river. Anytime hero steals the pot from a weak pair is a big victory.


I just called the turn looking for one of my 6 outs. I did not think the LAGGY player had a great hand and the poster -who really knows? A check raise would likely drive him out on both the turn or river. I guess you guys are thinking the turn is a better spot because it doesnt give anybody a chance to hit a cheap card on the river? AK could still be best here.

What is the plan for the rest of the hand after a turn check raise?

I would check/call the river. Get him to bluff when you have him beat, save a bet when you don't.
