1st orbit at table. All players are unknown. I think I should start doing some data mining.

All comments appreciated.

Why didn't you bet the turn?

I have no balls?
No seriuosly I considered a turn checkraise but then I went limp for some reason.

I think betting is the best option on the turn. You don't really want to give gutshots a free card here, and you'll most likely miss a bet if you're ahead. There's a good chance weaker kings will be afraid of the board pairing and check behind.

Gotta bet that turn.
