I would much rather call down vs an unknown than raise and fold.

Before I saw this I thought unless he has a great read on villian he shouldn't be folding, some people like to bet the turn into the flop aggresor. You guys think it's wrong to just call the turn/river?

i think i'd rather call down, but i don't mind the raise/fold.

the benefit to calling down is, of course, for the same amount you get to see his cards [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

in fact... the more i think about it, the less i like the raise/fold. what are you hoping to accomplish? given your aggression, if villain is bluffing, he's probably folding to a raise... and if he's not, you're likely getting 3-bet, or stop 'n' go'ed, or c/r on the river, or in some other way, are likely losing at least 2, if not 3 bets.

it's a small pot, folding wouldn't be terrible, but i think you'd rather see showdown.

i suppose to answer my own question... you wouldn't mind folding a hand on the turn that has outs against you... so i return to my "i prefer a call/call, but raise/fold is alright" position.

it's late, i'm tired. forgive my rambling.
