Re: Half price!
I think a turn checkraise is both too expensive of a bluff and doesn't work often enough because the pot becomes so huge by then. What if HJ decides to peel with a pocket pair because he's getting 15-1 and figures you still might just be bluffing or betting a worse hand (ie he has KK and thinks you could have QQ)? It's not a totally unreasonable bluff, but does it work out for you twice as often? I doubt it.
And don't forget, the horrible button still could have something that beats you. And HE's not folding if he does.
