That's a fine line to take sometimes. I'd also consider a turn c/r (he'd really have to bet that flop with a K, so I like my hand a lot). When the river falls, a bet isn't getting any calls from worse hands, so c/c is definitely the play.

Re: 3/6 rivered 2 pr
 

dude you have THREE pairs

and bet turn/river for value no doubt.

What worse hand calls the turn OR doesn't it matter?

Re: 3/6 rivered 2 pr
 

without any specific plan for what will happen and why i want it to happen, i think c/r the turn is a pretty bad play.

what do you hope to get called by and what do you do if he reraises on top of you?

unless he has QT here which bets the flop like 90% of the time, you don't have any real need to protect your hand. if you check the turn it should be with the intention of inducing weaker value bets or bluffs from him. if you want to take any initiative yourself bet the turn instead.

lol what a funny question

Re: 3/6 rivered 2 pr
 

Why so? I figured I was ahead and that if I bet the turn he'd fold.

I hope to get a suspicious call from hands like 99/JT that don't believe that I'm actually playing a real hand like that. If he calls, I have every intention of pushing the river, again hoping for a suspicious call. The A isn't a great card for that but I'd still bet it.

If he reraises me (likely allin) it's kinda tricky because there is an off chance that he checked a king. Though a good player can make this move with nothing if he thinks I'm full of it (which is the image I'm going for). So if I think this guy is capable of getting tricky, I'll call. If he hasn't shown any ability to make moves, I fold. Simple as that.

And I hate leading the turn. If you get raised you're in a real ugly spot, and it's hard to get many calls from worse hands because your line is very consistent with a good hand.
