Re: Should I check the turn
Okay, so let's pursue this line of questioning. According to the hand record and trying to piece it together you had seven players go to the flop so there's a minimum of 70 cents in there and the bet and two calls raises that number to 85 cents. Now, your opponent is getting 8.5:1 on his money when he's only a little worse than 4:1 to hit, or twice the money he needs to make his call "profitable" (of course we know a flush is dead here). Do you think he'll call a turn bet or fold?
To the rest of you: I beg a little patience of you here. I am well aware that this conversation is tangential to the real themes of the hand but I want to pursue this path of discussing his thinking. Once we reach a conclusion as to whether his thinking is logical and reasonable we can look at other ways to think about and play the hand.
