unfortunately i don't think there is

No, this villain is peeling so many flops that there is little difference between betting and check/folding the turn in terms of ev in my judgement. Just don't check and call. Josh is right as usual.

only if you give yourself at least 7 outs.

Re: Lost on the turn with 98s
 

I c/f this turn, typically, but recent hands between myself and villain can alter that plan.

do you adjust this against opponents who are v. loose w/ their requirements for peeling flops? I could see your reasoning for check/folding here but against someone who'll call that flop with J7, I think you need to bet again.

Re: Lost on the turn with 98s
 

i normally fold preflop

sometimes you can just check/fold depending on your read

Re: Lost on the turn with 98s
 

folding preflop is insane, what's your vpip?

Yes, i do. And betting again is only helpful if he peels with junk, and then wil fold said junk on the turn, because most of that junk is ahead of hero's 9-hi which will leave us having to fire again on the river.

you have a 50/50 hand oop against a guy who probably isnt folding preflop or on the flop
