Only thing I can really see is bet small enough on turn that in his mind he still has FE and can thus raise with a worse hand (~2600 is good). As played, I think your hand will be good a good % of the time and he'll be folding on turn usually, but then again, he's never calling you down with anything worse, either.

This is why I'm not a big fan of blindly hitting the "Bet Pot" button over and over.

Gab pushed the turn with KK. I think he played it really good.

plus the metagame of showing him that he cant just float the flop vs you and expect anything other than another barrel.

imo, theres alot more metagame value in checking this turn then betting this turn against someone who may be floating. you beat floaters by checking the turn to let him hang himself, not bet whenever you have something.

i agree, however, ITILTEZ has been reraising pre liberally, so he doesnt have to have a big hand at all, unlike what bruiser seems to think. but, those big hands ARE in the range too, so villian will rarely bet a worse hand on the turn when we check, but he will certainly take the free card. i think we bet to take down the pot now
