Default Re: Firing the Second Barrel (long)

nh.

One addendum, though: in Hand 1, I'm only check/folding against straightforward, unimaginative players. If Villain has shown himself to be a little tricksy I might give it one more go on the turn, especially if we're OOP (it'd be a bet/fold, of course).

The reason is a great deal of good players might float for one bet on that flop (Q75r) with something like 66, thinking that AQ/KQ/AA/KK/QQ will fire again on the turn but missed hands, like AK/AJ — but also JJ-99 — will not. Thus, Villain can fold to a turn bet but value-bet (or even get us off a better hand) if we check.

But that's incredibly read-specific. With no reads except TAG stats, checking behind or check/folding is fine.
