Re: The Turn Check Raise (From Middle Limit HE by BC and JB)
I'd fold because my outs are severely discounted.
If opponent likes to semibluff or bluff CR, I check to spike an A, K, Q, call river UI, bet if checked to, and raise if I improve.
I frequently but don't always bet this turn, but if you do bet and get CRed and you don't hold any of the suits on the board with your AK, this makes it a fold if you get CRed.
This is one of those times where you believe you have a chance to have the best hand, but continuing will require you to put too many bets in such a mediocre situation making it not worth it to gamble in this situation.
