Spoiler

$3.24 pot ($0.13 rake)
Final Board: J♣: Q♠: 8♠: T♠: 7♠:
BB showed J♠: A♦: and won $3.11 ($1.50 net)
Hero mucked Q♥: J♥: and lost (-$1.61 net)

I really feel i should have bet the turn, because this reasonable player will more then sure raise me with a completed draw and i can still get value from hands like QTs, AJ, KJ,KQ(mb with fd) JTs and OTR after he check twice mb i can bet there too, im not selling much but he can fold a straight in some cases i guess.

Hi juhiimi,
If you did bet the turn, how big would you make it?

You will need to make it big enough to give poor odds to call assuming he is on a straight or flush draw.
You also need to consider that he may already have a made hand, in which case you have 6 outs to a full house.

Now that I've seen the spoiler, I can't really imagine him folding that hand OTT unless the bet is rather large.

I'm curious to see what others think about this spot...

All the best,
VS

I think that this turn card is one of the worst we can get...

I'd probably play it the same way, so it looks well played to me. :f_thumbsup:

As played with the raise OTF i was hoping to see a bet OTT as well ;) to get some value out of AJ, AQ and A high FDs.

On a raise OTT or a bet OTR we would have had to muck.

Yeah i think bet the turn is better then check. Its a very ugly card, but there are also some worst hands that can call, and if i get raised there i know where i am.

Is shooting the dealer an option??
I think i would probably cbet OTT and if i didnt raise it there i would probably do it OTR, since the villain checked to me twice.
BTW I would fold if reraised and check OTR if the villain called my cbet OTT
