Default Re: 10-25 AJo hand

I'm gonna go ahead and suggest that we don't want all the $$$ going in on this turn. Blah blah, i'm a pussy etc... but his preflop/flop play is as/more condusive to suited diamond connectors than KQ or something of the like. We have the nut redraw here, so obviously we want to see the river. So sak yourself what if he really going to stick in another 2k, into what is now a 1kish pot without a flush. It's pretty rare. So check here, give him a chance to bluff or value bet worse hands. C/r all in is pretty pointless b/c if he calls, he almost always has us unless he played TT weirdly.

If you check call the turn, you hand looks a decent amount like AA or AK, and you might induce him to try and move you off that on the river if he missed with some KJs type hand. By not looking to get it in on the turn, you make it more likley that he pays of with worse hands, potentially lose less when behind, and possibly induce bluffs later.
