Don't mind the turn check, but I'd prefer to bet $20ish. Hands like QJ, KJ, AJ, 9x are never folding, QT is probably calling as well. River is standard as played.

If you're checking the turn, it is to push over his river bet imo. tbh I would consider bet/folding the turn.

EDIT- but I doubt Id ever actually fold it

I much prefer betting the turn. You have the best hand 90% of the time, lots of worse holdings are calling you -- get the money in and stack him on the river.

Shove/call vs a turn c/r ldo.

[Hince]

Your hand is so hidden and it is too big to fold. I usually bet the turn and try to get it in. That said, I still like your line.

I like a turn bet, so many cards could scare villain.

Turn is 50/50 bet/check for me. If I decide to bet the turn it's because I am shoving any non-9 river.

[VPIP100]

You shove a J on the river?
