Villain is 26/18 prob. losing player. Preflop he plays loose postflop he raises only 7% over 600hands samplesize.

Is the turn bet bad? We have a good equity but the range we get called on turn is crushing us and it sucks to get raised by sets. So I guess on turn we should be actually checking?

Hi,

I think turn is a bet with our hand, being deeper increases the value of our nut flush draw and we want to get more money in if we hit.

If we check back we might get a bet from better aces on the river for value which would have called us on the turn, and we would have checked back if we didn't complete so it's kind of the same thing.

And if we check we miss a lot of value from worse flush draws.

The downside of betting is getting check raised, which is not that bad considering we have the nut flush draw while deep and having a gutshot to go with it, we almost always have the implied odds to call a check raise and get it in when we hit for a larger than usual stack.

Thanks
Xavierfok
