350ish on the turn, villain could have a flush darw and we dont want to give him free cards , if he flat calls that i check / call the river

i'm happy with this play. i like the check on the turn for pot control because he may have a Q. Having said this i don't think a bet on the turn is bad.

I think a bet on the turn exposes you too much. Not really worried about a flush draw heads-up. River looks OK to me against an unknown, but I doubt you're ahead enough against a solid regular.

I realize its folded to you on the button with a decent hand but I don't think we have to play this. At 25/50 I am probably going to raise it but here it is just a marginal hand that puts you in a thin situation we don't want (I am assuming late game play is generally poor at PS $27's) since we can dominate late game.

As played Bet 3/4 to full pot turn, river call looks fine.

Guys, I'm relatively certain he didn't post this to get opinions on preflop, which is fine. If someone wants to start a new thread titled "How to play AT preflop on the button in L2 of a Stars turbo $27", maybe we could get this debate decided once and for all there.

Early in the trny... the villain call must be fairly open hand range... without a read I would bet 1/2 pot turn bet and call the river...
