It seemed like a c/r was the way to go on this turn... i'm not sure what he'd play this way that he wouldn't bet out on the turn. am i wrong? comments appreciated.

That nine is gonna scare most fish and even some tags. Things I could see being played this way: AK (maybe, probably capse PF), AQ, AT, weaker K (worried about kicker trouble). Bassically that nine is a freeze card, it will freeze up a lot of bettors. I like leading that turn, it makes your straight less obvious and may even get a raise, if he thinks you're just donking the scare card.

I don't think many players at .50/1 are going to see you donk a scare card and think you're trying to bluff them. They're just going to call down. Which they'll do almost always when you check/raise them anyway.

I like the play, sucks MP2 checked behind.
