Default Turn Check

Villain's in these hands often peel loose, and generally peel any ace high hand.

Folded to Hero in the CO who opens with Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]J [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], BB calls.

BB checks, Hero bets, BB calls

Turn: A [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

How passive is he?

In both hands i would prefer to put in a bet on the turn.

Unless he is super aggresive the first hand is an easy bet/fold for me.

The second is closer to a bet/call, on such a drawy board I would never check behind but bet/fold or bet/call depending on villain

I think both are easy bets, both for value and draw-charging. I'd fold the second if checkraised, and probably calldown the first.

In the first hand, I didn't see villain drawing to any more than 4 outs. That made it an easy decision for me to check behind and induce bluffs on the river. If I bet the turn in both hands, villain will fold all hands but those that beat me. If I show weakness by checking behind, he will very frequently bet the river with whatever he's got.

I think hand 2 is an easy bet. I'm ok with checking hand 1, although in practice I probably stubbornly v-bet it and either get c/r'ed or fold out a worse hand... sigh.

I bet the turn and if called, most rivers in both of these.

If this is true, which I doubt, then you'll pwn them when you bet air on these turns, and you need to bet your pair hands so they don't realize your turn bets are more FOS.

In the first hand he could easily have peeled with something like KT that you don't necessarily want to give a freebie too. Could have a worse jack or 56s which will usually call again so you have quite a bit of value IMO. I also agree with sharpie that I'm following up on ace turns so much to induce folds with nothing that checking behind good hands would do damage to this plan.

Hand 1 - I would bet the turn against a passive, but I like checking behind against others on this board. I think this will induce a ton of bluffs from hands that are way behind or could have even been drawing dead on the turn.

Hand 2 - I bet this against anyone.
