Default Re: The Overuse of the WA/WB line Out of Position

[ QUOTE ]
In the cases in which my opponent is a solid player I begin to check-call the flop and donk the turn with more frequency.

Why would you do this with Ax instead of checkraising the flop and betting the turn?

I'm really having trouble with this question. My right brain really likes the idea of checkcall-bet with hands like this. It feels right and I can't explain why.

My left brain will have none of this. The checkraise is clearly a fat +EV bet so why leave it on the table? Especially when the flop doesn't leave much scope for representing that the turn improved your hand. Villain knows that the hand you bet the turn with is probably the hand you played the flop with. Whether or not you checkraised the flop isn't going to greatly influence his turn play.

Can anyone out there help my right brain explain itself?
