Re: A hand from SSHE would like discussion

Secondly, I don't believe SSHE explains what the plan on the turn is (although I could be wrong, I don't have the book in front of me). So we raise the flop, then what? If we get a couple of callers do we simply check the turn UI, or are we forced to bet? Even if we get it heads up, are we again forced to bet UI?

No, on the turn, unfortunately, you got to play poker. You have to assign some ranges to your opponents hands, and figure out what the best play is, based on what you think/guess/hope they have.

yeah, this is something that trips me up ocassionally, since it is very dependent on the opponent(s) in the hand. If I've seen them play weak, I commit to continuation betting the turn. If they're calling everything I feel better about checking the turn sometimes. I've come to realize is that when in doubt, I prefer to bet the turn here. Let my opponents make the difficult decisions, ocassionally they will get it wrong and call with losers or fold winners.
