Default Re: Its my turn......

Sometimes playing your hand in a straight forward manner is the most deceptive. By which I mean, you should put in a bet or a raise at every opportunity on the turn. I don't see any benefit to smooth calling the turn.

FWIW, I was involved in this hand and with a pot this size I would and did expect TT to play his hand straight. I think his turn play is less than ideal, but it did have the effect of making me misread his hand completely and led to my giving more action than I should have. I think this is more of a happy accident than anything else though, and I think he should have simply bet the turn.
