Default Re: KK line check.

i want to check turn and call a river bet.

pros to checking the turn:

1. the Q is likely to have hit a UTG limping hand.
2. we are either drawing to 2 outs or he is drawing to 2 outs.
3. he may bluff bet the river with many hands that would just fold the turn. he may also value bet with pocket pairs expecting us to call with A/K high.
4. we get to showdown
5. we never get put to the test by a turn check raise.

cons:

1. we miss out on value if he is planning to call down.
