Default Re: Due for a content thread i guess? (blindaments)

If the board is really dry and I picked up a gutter, I will often check, especially since I often have 6 outs.

I think I would play it the same here. While the board isn't necessarily super dry, there are only a couple of draws that might be calling that you are still ahead of. Stuff like 67, 78 just hit a pair, you are behind KQ, KT, and any ace he might call down with. Also, some of the draws you are ahead of like QT likely would play the flop a bit faster, especially on a dry board.

I don't like getting c/red on this type of turn when I will often have 6 outs and need to call the turn c/r. I might be giving up the pot occasionally to a bluff by a worse hand on the river, but not often enough to make up for what I gain with the free card.


Edit: I read the turn as a gutter rather than double gutter. I might need to rethink the turn...
