Default Re: Hand Vs Good Player

I find this debate fascinating.
Folding is insane, and playing passively is wrong in a vacuum, because his range is so large with a button raise.
Now it might sometimes be right to call down if bluffing history is high and opponent has become ultra tenacious against you.
I am not a fan of raising the turn, as long as you often check raise the flop with made hands, because you don't usually gain much more folding equity. Your main target folding hands are the one folding the flop check raise or the turn for one bet (Ax,Kx type hands). Obviously, if you have been raising the turn a lot recently with made hands and have been called down, because you thought he was too much of a flop turn pounder, then check raising the turn might become preferable.
It is funny you almost posted the same hand one or two years ago when facing an early raise, I was in the check call camp because the raising range was so much narrower then.
