Default Re: Do you like this turn check?

IMO this is terrible turn play. This is exactly the type of hand where you need to be betting. You are probably ahead, but very vulnerable to hands that might fold if you bet. Checking will cost you the whole pot a good percentage of the time (as well as missing out on a bet or two often).

If you get check raised, that is unfortunate, and you just have use your judgement whether it's worth calling down, but the possibility of that uncomfortable situation doesn't swing the decision from bet to check, since putting pressure on your opponents is just so necessary here.

yeah, i guess my play sucked. i'm on a 130bb downswing in the past 30 hours and this is the only f'ing hand I won. i really think playing [censored] cards works.

SB had Q2 and was gonna checkraise, but i rivered my gutshot.
