I agree completely with this, however, if your image is to give up on the turn you might consider a check-raise on the turn. He might be betting a draw, which gets more money in the pot if his draw misses, and you might take it down right there if he was trying to float. If a blank hits the river using this line, I bet hard. I've used this line quiet a bit to shut down floaters with good success. In fact, I can't remember the last time someone called down all the way to the river with this line.. and since I cbet 90% of the time, I get to use it a lot.Originally Posted by euphoricism
I can't think of a good reason not to. ABCD theorem puts this in like a low B to high C category, and even that might be generous. We have practically zero showdown value so that might even bump us into a low C to high D range.
If villain called here I'd check behind turn and fold river UI. Generally speaking, even if he is only on a draw, he's not folding to a turn bet and he has a buttload of outs against you assuming you're ahead in the first place.
