600 on flop and get it on the turn.

400 Pre, 650 flop shove turn.. pretty much what john just said...

How come you CRAI the turn instead of leading out again?

[AMT]

raise more preflop and get it in on the turn

Preflop I have the 3rd best hand bvb. I definitely want action and this is my standard raise. On the flop he's not going to think I hit the board so I'm trying to make it look like a standard c-bet.
My big problem is the turn. The reason I went for the CRAI is because I had more than a PSB but I have no idea if this is correct...

bvb with a really aggro and possibly bad opponent, i highly doubt hes folding for 400 or 450 here while calling 375. you can get some more value out of your hand.

if you think hes likely to stab then a c/r AI is definitely a reasonable line...otherwise, value betting again is reasonable.

Do we not get more value by CRAI the turn ?? Allow hands we beat to bet the turn. Instead of correctly folding to an oversized turn shove. I seriously doubt that Ax is folding to the shove no matter what way we do it.

Pre-flop is good against a regular. Against an unknown then I with AMT here.
