Tricky situation since you don't have a club...

Ahh the famous 'monster under the bed'-phobia. Sure there's a chance he has 2 clubs since he could be calling 350 PF with any 2 suited cards, but you can't expect that to happen every time 3 suits are turned over on the flop. You miss out on a lot of value and give your opponent cheap cards to draw to the flush if they have 1 club.

What do rest of you guys think off a raise here on the turn?

If you flatcalled the flop fearing a flush I don't see you raising the turn with a blank hitting.

But when you have gotten over your phobia then I would recommend a turn raise yes.

I thought there was a 15% chance he had 2 clubs in his hand. I thought there was a 75% by his betting patters he had 1 club though. My reason for not PUSHING after flop and turn? I don't have one. I look at it now and think "Easy Push" but I don't know why I didn't do it. For some reason with this hyper aggressive guy I thought a push would have resulted in him going all in, and I didn't want to have to make that decision. I mean, this guy was involved in every pot and as you can imagine he was out soon after this hand.

I don't got that phobia... or atleast I'd like to think so [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I am not putting him on a vlub here but most likely one so that's why I am just flatcalling the flop and then re-evalutating the turn if it comes blank. I am not against raising the flop after his weak bet but I wouldn't do it, I would call that tiny bet and re-evaluate if the turn came blank. Leak maybe? Hmm I will have to think about this.

EDIT: Hmm guess I missed he miniraised. It's a clear raise here then. Sorry. But I stand by my post saying to cold call if the raise was a bit bigger then raising the turn if it came blank.
