In addition, I think the turn raise keeps him honest; I'm repping a monster imo.

So why did you call the river?

Yeah really, if you're going to raise the turn you can't call the river imo. In that case calling the turn is better, which is a reasonable line if you're uncertain about how villain would react on the turn to a raise.

against a thinking opponent, i'd agree. against a donk who doesn't think about our cards, i disagree.

The thing is that donks have street by street short term memory.

But the reasoning to rep a monster and keep him honest is obv flawed if we're paying off the river. And if we think this is true (villain has a short term memory loss), why would we like to raise the turn instead of just calling down?

Either we raise the turn and fold to any more resistance or we just call down imho. We just don't like to play a big pot with such a weak hand if we think villain might be spazzy.
