Default Re: Turn check through - Trying to induce a bluff.

[ QUOTE ]
I'm betting the turn every time.

If you think he's got a weak ace...bet for value and protect your hand.

If he's going to fold, fine, its better than giving a free card, having him spike somethign like a 7 on the river and stealing the pot.

I agree with the turn being a bet, but if we somehow knew our opponent had A7, like you used in your example, it would turn into a check. With A7 he only has 2-3 outs against us, and the bet we gain on the river by inducing a bluff is more important than protecting our hand because the pot is small and he has so few outs.
