Turn check through - Trying to induce a bluff.
Party Poker (6 max, 6 handed) converter
Preflop: Hero is CO with A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]. MP limps, Hero raises, all fold, MP calls. Flop: 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 3[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 2[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font> MP checks, Hero bets, MP calls. Turn: T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font> MP checks, Hero checks. River: 3[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font> MP checks, Hero checks. Final Pot: 1. I put him on a weak ace. If this is the case, he's folding to a turn bet. 2. I was hoping that he would bluff at the river. Edit: Converter malfunction.

From what little read I did have on him, he's either calling this flop with a weaker ace, or a pair. As far as betting this river, I agree, I think I should be value betting this. However, I sometimes check these through, in hopes that these guys are somewhat perceptive. And, especially against someone directly on my right, I want them to fear my river bets. Seeing me play this hand in this manner (even though I'm fairly sure I'm ahead) may give me a passive image to this guy on my right.

Re: Turn check through - Trying to induce a bluff.
I'm betting the turn every time.
If you think he's got a weak ace...bet for value and protect your hand. If he's going to fold, fine, its better than giving a free card, having him spike somethign like a 7 on the river and stealing the pot.

[/ QUOTE ] I agree with the turn being a bet, but if we somehow knew our opponent had A7, like you used in your example, it would turn into a check. With A7 he only has 2-3 outs against us, and the bet we gain on the river by inducing a bluff is more important than protecting our hand because the pot is small and he has so few outs.

Re: Turn check through - Trying to induce a bluff.
You have an easy heads up bet on this turn. The only strength your opponent has shown is check-calling a ragged flop against a preflop raiser. You will win on the turn a decent amt of the time and have plenty of outs if called or raised. It's also quite possible your ace high is the best hand. Keep pounding.
