SB is an unknown TAG
PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $2 BB (5 handed) Poker-Stars Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)
SB ($272.45)
BB ($240.20)
UTG ($148.55)
MP ($235.70)
Hero ($496.15)
Preflop: Hero is Button with T  , T  .
2 folds, Hero raises to $8, SB raises to $26, 1 fold, Hero calls $18.
Flop: ($54) 4  , 3 , 8  (2 players)
SB bets $40, Hero calls $40.
Turn: ($134) 5 (2 players)
SB checks, Hero bets $65
The biggest reason why i like a turn bet is because it puts us in a bet/fold situation on the turn instead of potentially ending up in a call/fold situation on the river.
I don't mind the idea of betting this turn, with the intention of folding to a raise. BUT I think the bet sizing you picked will induce a lot of bluff raises. If you wanna bet/fold to better hands, then better stronger ~100ish, so you can be confident that a push is a legitimate hand.
