Default two pair

Villain is drfool, seems taggy/decent. No history or stats. I just checked in PT and I'm running at 25/20, so villain might know that (but I'm not using a hud right now). Maybe it's results oriented, but anyone like a turn check? What's your plan if you check/call turn?

Most of the time BTN don't expect you to call, and he has a big draw like Jh 8h.

I don't like a turn check because it gives too many free cards that put a 4 card straight on the board.

No comment, except having a good range for what he calls with preflop, and what he peels flop with helps immensely.

fold, AJ, KQ, or he slow played a set on flop. only thing you can beat here is AK... and that's a pretty [censored] push. Jh8h doesn't make sense here because he called you on teh flop.

I do not like a check on the turn. I fold to his push, but still don't check the turn.

Def. fold here, you have two pair and if this is a bluff, it sounds like it is probably out of line for a decent/taggy player. I don't see checking the turn here as being a good line, you have two pair and you want to get money in the pot. While it is not the mortal nuts, you do have a fairly decent hand, so I don't see why you would want to allow the villain to take control of the hand, unless you are planning on CR the villain all in, and I don't feel like that is a good line here either, as you are either WA/WB with the board that you have on the turn. Worse hands are folding and you are being called by better. Villains line looks like the standard stack a donk line that we all use so much.

i play it the same and fold fast to his AI.
Judging from your past ssnl posts you pretty much bulldoze when you play a hand no ? So if he has KJ, QJ or QT here you get payed off since double barreling or betting a Q/AK here isnīt realy out of line for you is it ? And you avoid a tough river decission wich you probably will face when you c/c this turn.
I only check this turn against good and hyper aggro players that are capable of pushing me off the hand here and where i can induce bluffs etc.
