Re: Hit a pair on the turn but I still ain\'t pleased.

Definitely not given the likelyhood of you getting raised and shutting out the fish. I like your turn check too, given your read that he plays the expensive streets more aggressively. I would call this turn bet because I think you're being pessimistic about estimating your outs. What reason do you have to believe anybody has a J or a T? [/ QUOTE ] Specifically J or T? none. But JJ and TT are certainly possible as he raised preflop, and really these are the only hands I'd put him on where I'm ahead here--anything else and I'm either 4 or 5 outs to either a win or tie. As it played out, I folded and the river was a blank; the PFR had QQ and the cold-caller A5s. |

[/ QUOTE ] OK you're probably right that a J on the river isn't likely to help you given his range of hands. But a river'd T? I like your chances of taking it down yourself with the 1-card straight... Not saying it's an easy call. It's close, and I suck at math. |

Grunching:-
You should be check/calling the flop for one bet, since you have the implied odds to go for the gutshot coupled with the backdoor flush possibilities. When the PFR checks I start to smell a rat. Most pre-flop raisers bet this flop regardless of whether they have an ace. When he checks I start to suspect he has AA, AQ or QQ and he is making some kind of daft slowplay, particularly given your read on his pre-flop raising requirements. I certainly am not calling the turn with the pot being so small. |

Raise preflop, bet the turn.
