I outplays him...

[urbanati]

Villain is 22/17/2.8, light 3-bettor, so I called planning to float him but I also hit a piece...
I wonder if this is a standard turn bet.

standard indeed

I think checking turn &gt; betting turn here. He might be going for stack-a-donk with an overpair and it puts you in a gay position when he raises. If he C/R's the turn with QQ+ you'll be getting about even odds to make a call so its not horrible but checking behind and calling a river bet on a blank and raising on 7,8,h is probably better.

I guess it depends on how often you think he'll fold 99-JJ

I hate getting c/r'ed here. I prefer to check behind because we have a ton of outs now and might already have the best hand and we don't need to bet to protect it.

[AggJedi]

If you check this turn what is your plan on the river, how large of a bet will bet will you call on what card hitting? I prefer to just bet 3/4ths pot on the turn here as if you didnt hit the flop at all.

[Pokerpudel]

on the turn he has something about 200$ left so I would bet something like 75$ and call a shove obv.

[Demogorgon]

Huh? We hit middle pair on the flop. And now we have a disguised flushdraw. I think this is well played if we check the turn.
Don't see what good betting does vs villains range here, unless we have a nitty &amp; passive image he's prob not folding anything we beat to one bet.

Agreed, don't bet turn urb. Check, fold to &gt;1/2 pot river bet if you don't improve.

[Spinners]

See, my initial thoughts were to bet out here because that was are plan the whole way.

But, I do agree, checking and seeing the river is goot.

Ya I like checking turn, I'm not neccessarily folding to a &gt; 1/2 pot bet on river though. One of the main benefits of checking turn is to catch a river bluff which could easily be more than 1/2 pot. There are pros and cons to both turn actions but checking seems best, maybe the best part is that getting CR'd on turn really sucks.
