Re: Is this a string bet?

True, but by the same token if you are bluffing the turn and the dealer doesn't call it you don't want to make a stink yourself and reveal how weak you are if you wanted to throw another bluff out on the river, so having the dealer enforce the rules would be helpful in this case no?

Not sure what you are saying. If I'm bluffing the turn I'm betting. And if I don't want to be called on a string bet I won't string bet.

What he's saying is that you bet as a bluff, and your opponent string raises. If you call him on it it's an indication that you are weak, which will interfere with your ability to make a follow-up bluff on the river. If you don't you have to deal with this raise now, which you'd rather not. So it's to your advantage for a neutral party to call it.
