irish mafia- ya im not sure what to think here. to who said check on the turn, that crossed my mind, but i figured that would take a lot of value out of the hands because id basically be letting him draw or get away from draws cheaply. i think i kind of "have" to bet here, even tho i had no idea what i was going to do if he raised such a weird card haha. his timing was pretty consistent, he shoved over after timing down 3/4 of the way on full tilt which is how long he took on the flop to decide.

if you were in his shoes tho, do you really run a delayed semi bluff out of position? with how aggro games are today, i'd think in position he might "slow play" his draw, but out of position i hardly ever see it.

i think the fact that i bet smallish may give him some perception of fold equity, but on these boards im so likely to already have a made hand or such a big draw that im not folding once i bet the turn that i just dont think he ever expects me to fold here.
