Silly Pot nobody wanted, and I picked up a draw on the turn

[Sarge85]

Tables were simply dreamy last night. Uber passive Uber Loose.

Action on turn please?

I play it the same here. Your bet will take it down a great deal of the time.

Also, I am always tempted to bet the river and put my lone calling opponent on a draw unless they are passive. This could be a leak in these sorts of situations but I am curious as to what others have to say.

Isn't this a spot where you are supposed to check with outs and bet with none?

Or is the Ace overcard worth the bet?

[me454555]

Seems good to me. If your behind, your not behind by much here. I don't think he's got a jack or ten so you could have as many as 12 outs to win and 2 Js for a split pot. Your bet on the turn will win it often enough to make this a profitable semi bluff.

The combination of a large number of outs plus a good possibility that he will take down the pot right here makes it a profitable bet.
