others do the same ... which is another reason a bet is good in this spot.

I think checking behind the turn is some results oriented thinking; there's a lot of value to be had with a turn bet.

I check the turn here a lot, but once you do that, you pretty much have to call all blank rivers.

If villian is so smart why is he pricing us in for our full house draw with his made flush?

I'd three-bet shove the turn. Why is nobody else doing that?

Kramer, it's not that a flush card turned, it's that a flush card turned in combination with villain's specific line. I agree that checking behind on the turn with a set head's up is generally not something you should be doing, but this is an exception.

Shoving into an opponent who has represented a hand that has us beat?
