Re: STTF SNG->cash thread
IMO this turn is a raise. The guy either has an A or better, or he doesn't. If he doesn't, there aren't really any river bluff cards, so unless he's crazy aggro he's shutting down on the river with air.
So, flat calling to induce a bluff doesn't have much value IMO.
So, the question is, are you going to get more value out of a weak to medium A here by calling or raising? (we're getting it in regardless if he's really strong.)
IMO, someone with an A here will almost always call a raise on the turn. If you flat call and bet when checked to, or raise over a river raise, you're really only get one street of value. However, I feel you can get that same value by raising the turn. But, if you raise the turn and get called, you're essentially free rolling on the river if he ever calls another bet.
