fold please.

This is a great place for him to bluff whether you check or bet, so you can only beat air here, but he won't have air enough times to make anything other than folding the correct move.

Fold. It's quite likely that he made a straight, and personally I would c/f turn.

I think b/f is a much better line, as tp will bet turn when checked to and you'll fold the best hand quite often. Also, you get less value out of tp hands.

I think you should have put out a stronger bet on the turn though, there's a chance he's throwing out the raise because you came across so weak. You can't do anything about it now, but in the future you should make a more standard 1/2-2/3 bet (so like 5-7 on this pot).

Yeah, don't bet weak when you are scared. If I was villain I'd think "wow, he didn't like that card". Its still a fold but your weak bet makes it a good bluff more often.

I don't like the weak bet on the turn. If you are going to bet, come in with a bet around $6.50. As played, fold.

Looks like you've induced a bluff raise. Guess you'll have to go ahead and push this (as he's doing this with a lot of draws.)

This is BvB. Top two is the nuts.

I don't think that betting this turn is going to get you very far. It's not a great card to double barrel. This card is way more likely to help villan than to help you, given that you raised prefop. Are you trying to represent 99?
