Stop-N-Go with the Nuts

Simple question...what hands do you expect to call your turn bet that would have folded to a raise on the flop?

It depends on the player obviously, but i would guess his intention on the turn was to get in a lead/reraise, not get called by a hand that wouldn't have called a flop reraise.

I think it's valuable to think about what that turn bet is trying to accomplish (e.g. what types of hands is it targeting?) and then figure out if that thinking is consistent with the decision to not reraise the flop.

My position is they're completely inconsistent, but I'd like to know what fsuplayer was thinking at the time.

My guess would be that he's trying to get the semi-short stacked player to push with 2 pair. I think the flop call and the turn underbet accompish this better than a flop lead reraise.

nah, this happens very rarely in a real game.
