Default Re: PNL Study Group Day 6: Position/Hand Reading/FIP

I hope this is the correct place for this, but i'm having an issue with hand #4 on page 88-89, lets say we play as the hand suggests, and the river hits a 9c. Villian then bets the pot. Would we reraise? Villian pushes, would we call? Villian bets, we reraise, he pushes, would we call and pray we don't see KJ, if we do see KJ do we chalk it up to varience, or figure perhaps we should have played differently on the turn? I see alot of advantage to pot control and checking behind that i had never thought of before, however in this particular hand with the check call on the flop, on a draw heavy board with a preflop limper, shouldnt we be charging draws here, or trying to find out where we are in the hand on the turn. Does checking the turn really preserve the most value here? I think i might be missing the point, but i find in this particular hand, if i faced a big bet on the river, i'd feel as though i led myself into this tough decision by not betting the turn. assuming the 9 doesn't hit the river then i would find myself asking questions like this - Did he miss his flush and is trying to buy the pot? I would be less concerned (potientially more annoyed though) buy getting check-raised on the turn, and knowing i'm beat and having to fold, then by facing a big or even moderately large bet on the river and not feeling i've defined his or my hand at all. I may also be forced to fold the best hand because my turn play induced a large bluff. I'm wondering if betting the turn and hoping for a check down on the river may be better?
