i think his argument has merit skier. if 30% of the deck is bad for you, and the value of your hand strongly depends on the turn card, isnt it fair to see it before committing?

I think you are right, but leading>>>>>>>> c/c.

fwiw i was thinking more of it's ridiculous not to c/r this board because the turn might be a difficult decision/we might not know what to do.

C/c is so bad. If the other 70% come, what are you doing?
C/r or donk?
Why not bet and hope he raises his draw?

this hand was butchered on the flop and your reasoning for not raising the flop is backward

People probably call this flop more liberally than they bet it, so I would lead the flop. I think the logic about not checkraising when so many cards suck is good, especially with these stacks.

I agree that leading is better than c/c here, but I like the flop c/c better than c/r actually since stacks and scare cards make a ton of turns really awkward, and it disguises your hand very nicely. I think you played this well and the river is a definite fold.

i have a few hypotheticals for you guys:

1. are we calling if the river blanks and he bets the same? i would say yes because his bet-sizing leads me to believe he has a flush or nothing
2. we are fine with getting all-in against button if the turn blanks, right?
3. we wouldn't be fine getting all-in against utg+1 with the same action and the turn blanks, right? (assuming he is competent)
