Turn: ($0.73) A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
BB checks, Hero ?.

Preflop: Trying to steal the blinds w/ a decent hand, and if I get called (which is alot), I have position on them and I probably have a better hand then them. Pretty standard I guess. My only read on the caller is that he value-bets small and is pretty passive.

Flop: C-bet/semibluff here w/ 2 overcards and flush draw. I get check-raised which means he could be doing this with any pair or better I think. I call because I got a ton of outs.

Turn: Ok, he checks again. I really have no idea what it means, but I think it could be that he is trying to keep the pot small with a marginal middle pair hand. It could mean he is afraid of the Ace. Or often, he could be planning another check-raise which is actually pretty common at these limits. So what should I do here? Take the free card or fire a 2nd barrel and represent the ace?
