Default Re: I hate the turn.

For those advocating a raise preflop, what's your reason? Trying to fold out BB? Capitalize an equity advantage? If we had only a single limper in already, I could see raising from the SB, but with 2 already in, I don't see the advantage of raising (not to say it's wrong, just wondering).

If raising pre is right, I don't see how, when we've underrepresented our hand, check/folding the turn is right. We're so sure that button only raises the flop with a jack, when the pot was unraised before the flop? And probably a weaker jack at that, since he limped instead of isolating from the button? What range are you c/f-the-turn advocates putting on villain?
