Turn raises....

[Michael Emery]

A few times in my sessions yesterday the following situation came up. I would raise in EP (10 handed) with a hand like AK or AQ. Two callers to see a very ragged flop like 2h 6d 8c. I would bet the flop, one would drop, and the other call. I then would fire again on the turn when a total blank hit and get raised. I was foolish enough to call down in a few instances like that with my AK thinking it might be a "move" with a weaker unpaired hand like AT/QK/QJ/etc. I'm realizing now that they seemed to be wasted bets as the three or so times I called down with AK I saw a hand like a med. overpair. So my question is are turn raises with nothing at limits like 2-4/3-6 on party rare?
