Default Re: Live 20/40 Gar vs. Pro Part 2

I am curious what would be the point of betting the turn here? If were behind we are getting raised, If we are ahead our opponent probably doesn't have many outs and may very well fold in a situation where he might have continued to bet. We have outs.......Just curious.

I am also curious if you think the pro should have bet the river here?

I see no point in betting the turn. No turn [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] came allowing the opportunity for opponent to check behind with a random heart to beat me. I have a hand that is hard to beat given I was ahead on the flop. If Pro is bluffing, I want the bluffing to continue. The only monkey wrench was the river Q, which created a potential dilemma for me (luckily it didn't).

Should Pro bet 66? Probably. However, I have been known to check-raise the river. It's highly probable I lead a J, so 66 is a pretty good value bet.
