I kinda like a turn fold this deep. I don't think we can ever play for stacks, and it looks like he will force us to. I think you could check-raise sometimes, but I think check-fold is best.

I think this is fine. I don't like a turn c/r.

No. If you want fold, fold the turn. Otherwise you should also call the completely blank river.

I would have bet more on the flop, too.

sixhigh is so on the money its unbelievable - if you fold to a blank river, why call the turn?

Bet more on the flop too, 44 looks right to me.

I shoulda just quoted sixhigh actually, looking back.

this makes sense, but the fact is that most ABC 18/12s at this level will not turn T9 into a bluff on this river. They will only bet river if they have the flush.

i think i like a turn fold too. this seems like a "hammer of future bets" situation.
