1) After his flop check/raise you are often behind or you play against a draw. As you are in position you can just call and save some money. 3-betting the flop would be an option when out of position as you can prevent a freecard this way.

2) If you check the turn then give up on the riveras well. An alternative line would be to bet/call the turn again as the flop could be called with a lot overcards against which you are still ahead. Either raised or not you can check/fold the river as well against 2 opponents and against one (only not raised on the turn) you can consider check/calling.

2) BET TURN!!! Every Overcards, every backdoordraw with 1 Overcard calls here we very often do have the best Hand here.

I certainly do NOT agree with c/c the river after Bet Turn and one opponent folded. IMO a valuebet is a MUST here, villiain either has A high and will call us down (or even K high) or he has a PP und will call us down, but with which he will valuebet the river anyways: the flop was absolutely dry, so there is no draw (ok, QJ maybe) which he could bluff on the river.


2) That's true. Good point. But please stop this "!!!" and cap locks writing. There is no need for that!
