Default Re: Foxwoods 10-20: Tough Turn versus a Check-Raiser -- Bet to Protect

What's in the pot at decision time? 5.25 BB's? Your bet is not inducing a fold from any reasonable FD, but being check-raised can push you off a hand that may have 5+ outs to a win.

On the other hand, the 3-flush will often freeze the action; if you bet a c/r will fairly reliably signal that you're crushed (set/str8/flush or KxQs at worst) and otherwise you can take a free showdown UI.

Bet/fold. Against a known aggressive player, value check.
