Default Re: who goes back for more?

I just don't think a bet is mandatory in this spot.

Very, very little in life is mandatory. However, you really should bet the turn. I can think of a lot of hands that you're ahead of.

No one likes to be checkraised in this situation, but you have a very strong hand and it should be bet.

Can you put either of my opponents on a hand that I'm not ahead of?

Anyone who knows my game would scoff at the idea that I am too passive in general.

The key piece of information in this hand was conveyed by the capstone bet on the flop.

My main opponent raised on the flop when next to act against someone who raised out of the blinds and bet a board with no big cards. This means he doesn't mind going heads-up with a high pocket pair.

And then he capped the flop betting after I (who play fairly tight preflop and do not three-bet multiway flops with trash) raised behind him.

What's the logical conclusion?
