Default Re: Basic turn call/fold spot with overpair

I also fold. The flop is very dry and I wouldn't expect anything that beats you to raise till the turn...so I'd fold.

while this is true, to me it's only half the analysis. the other half is to think about the hands that you beat that would also play this way, and then figure out what fraction of his range I'm beating.

To quote Ken Lennard:

"It used to be that when someone waited to check raise you on the turn it was always the nuts, but now its always a bluff, poker has moved on in such a short amount of time"

Whilst i wouldnt take it to the extremes he is, but to simply think cos someone waits to raise until the turn they must have a flopped set is silly, and innacurate way more than half the time.
