JT 6-max, new at this.

Opponent is unknown but the table is generally passive.

I was going to fold the turn UI, but then when the board paired I thought I might be ahead of a worse T or busted draw.

I raise the Turn and fold to a 3 bet. I'm crap though.

[Dunno]

I raise this flop to get rid of one if he 3bets we call and seek to inprove the hand. If he bets out on the Turn he will have an A (if u dont have reads) and a fold would be in order.

When the board pairs A i would call it down.

[kapw7]

Perfect. Raising the turn can only scare away a worse hand. And yes even passive players bluff on a paired board.

EDIT: Rubbish. I thought it was heads-up on the turn.
Raise. OK. Back to work now.

[AdamL]

One point Dave brought up is that raising the flop might protect our backdoor flush, if we get something like the K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] to fold.

[Dunno]

what if an overcard comes up? we want this one overcard guys to fold so we protect the raised preflop pot. knock them out and get headsup.

[Redd]

I just limp this pf.

[aces_dad]

Given no read on original limper I don't raise this pf either.

[AdamL]

Sorry I didn't provide that read earlier, I've been focused on the postlfop.

[deception5]

I raise this preflop if MP is at all loose.
