Default Re: Weak played turn, can I call river?

The turn check here is weak IMO. I'll only check to a player who is very aggressive and C/R semi-bluffs a lot of these situations. There are LAGs (with KJ, QJ) who count the 6 outs for overs and the 4 outs for a gut and get 10 so they go into auto-check-raise mode. Against that player I may check the turn and call the river.

Otherwise this AT hand has good showdown value against a range of worst hands that would call the turn and check the river. Some may even call the turn and bluff the river.

All in all the turn bet gets us a win or a free show most of the time.

As played I need/want/like a read to call the river bet.
