Default Re: Foxwooods 20/40: JTs hand

I don't like the turn raise not so much for fear of getting 3 bet but for the river action. When you hit one of your draws, you want him to bet into you so you can raise. This way you pick up at least one bet on the river when he's bluffing and two bets when he's got a pair.

If you raise the turn even if you think your chances of getting 3 bet by a better hand are slim, he will certainly check call the river if he has a pair, and check fold if he misses. I don't think its likely that you have much FE with this raise on the turn. You are losing money on the turn raise when your opponent is ahead and losing one big bet on the river both when he is bluffing and you hit, and when he bets for value and you can raise.
