This happened first. Bet turn and call/fold?

UTG (t1500)
UTG+1 (t1500)
MP1 (t1220)
MP2 (t1810)
MP3 (t1490)
CO (t1460)
Button (t1500)
SB (t1520)
Hero (t1500)

Preflop: Hero is in BB with 6[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]

Flop: (t80) 7[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 6[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (4 players)

5 minutes after that hand on another table I decided to bet the turn (only 1 opp tho) but it was a pretty weak bet. What if river is a blank?

Hand 1: I think you lose a lot of value w/ this line. This is a line for TPTK.
I think you have to bet the turn.

Hand 2: This spot sucks, but I think you played it well. If the river blanks, I still think there's a good chance you're beat if he pushes. I think it's the turn that killed you.

First one I play the same, the flush almost has to be out there. Second one that's a gay card I think I'd probably c/c a blank, even shoving a blank can't be that bad but c/c seems better.

nh for both. I could see myself calling the 2nd hand might if I was not patient enough to notice the very likely str8 if villain has a T (the flush possibility is obvious)

Hand 1: Looks good, you have an easy call to try and fill up, and you are getting incredible odds to make a crying call on the river.

Hand 2: You have to fold the river, but bet more on the turn.
