Default Re: Call this river?

I understand not betting the turn for pot control, but I think a turn bet might get you the information you want (if he raises, you can fold). It's a tight spot, but your turn check makes it a toss up whether he's bluffing or has a hand.

Plus if he has something big he might try to checkraise the river if you bet the turn (check behind, of course). If he calls the turn and leads the river with a solid bet, you can happily consider yourself toast and check out.

I don't like fold river after he calls your turn bet since it's likely the other guy want to push you out of a split pot. These split situation is always tricky. Therefore I don't think check turn is that bad without read.
