if he's loose passive i'd bet it and check behind on the river. if he's going to bluff much though your line is great.

I'd bet the turn and check the river instead.
Isn't there a small change he'll fold Tx if you do?
And you could always spike a 7 on the river [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]


Obviously fold to a c/r from BB.

Well played, but I would think about checking the flop.

huh?

After raising from the button I'm going to bet the flop against a BB who just called PF with anything. The fact that you have an OESD makes it the much more attractive.

That said, I'm betting the turn. You're hand could easily be best right now, and you have lots of outs if you are behind to a J or a T. If you're planning on calling a river bet there is no reason to not bet the turn. Plus you can pick up an extra bet on the river if you make two pair trips or either straight. And if he's indeed loose-passive I'm betting any of those hands if he checks the river.

I don't like checking to induce a bluff.
