Default Re: TT and a turn auto-bet

I've been thinking about spots like this...especially in blind battles. I might defend and then check-raise a weakish draw on the flop, and suddenly the turn ace comes and I know I'm screwed. It doesn't really matter what he has, he can raise the turn and I have to fold. Turn aces can be really awkward...especially on already drawy boards.

So I like checking here. Giving a free card is a lot more fun than getting check-raised off the best hand.

Plus, sometimes the free card won't even matter if you get 9-high to bluff into you on the river.
