Default Re: love in 2 parts

I'm not sure I agree with it being a bad turn bet. I don't play on Pokerstars, and I don't know how either of these guys play, but I don't see why getting three streets of value is that much of a stretch against standard opponents, even if by getting value on the river I mean check/calling. The ranges are super wide here, I'm not sure I'd get spooked that easily.

I feel like checking the turn makes the hand more awkward, making us much more likely to want to go along for the ride to valuetown, and also letting him check in too many spots where he would have called, either when he checks behind on the turn and folds to river, or bets turn and checks behind river.
