Default I think I should raise the turn more often

Do you raise and get 3-bet by something like A6,A7,67? Do you call and let something like 88 and 99 keep
betting? Will 88 and 99 keep betting? Is this too villan dependant?

i'd call down in this spot. i like to raise here some when that 6 on the flop is also a club, or something like that, for a bit more equity. also if he 3bets do you call down?

Thats why I always get spooked raising the turn with a single pair. I don't know what he will call me with that I beat. If he 3-bets, what can he have that I am infront of? Probably the best i can hope for is that he will have 76 and i have lots of outs. Or he his bluffing of course.

buzz, not sure what or where you're playing, but 88 and 99 are usually gonna find a fold if we play our hand this way [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I don't want them to b/f here 'cause it will be pretty obvious what we hold if we raise.

Well it seems like every time I try to rep this turn card, 88+ calls me down...ergo the turn raise.

i mean in 6max, agreed, they are calling down more. but some of the fullring games have gotten pretty nitty and taggish a lot of the time. most guys that i've seen wouldn't call down with less than a pair of aces on the turn given that action.

That was also in the back of my mind. If I raise the turn, I think my hand looks quite obvious and might give villan a good excuse to get out of the hand.

So I guess then, if i call this turn, can I raise a safe looking river? I just feel like I am not getting enough out of these hands if I dont raise somewhere.

i often find if you call that turn they will shut down on the river and you can value bet and get called.
