    Gross. Don't c/r turn. Either c/c or lead out. As played, fold is good.

    Downswinging holla!
    Turn c/r is awful, your kicker is a 5. If he calls or raises he probably has a Q with a better kicker.

    Come to think of it, bdawg stole the words right out my mouth.

    Heh. By the way his kicker is a 7.

    c/r is gross because of his raise on the flop right? Only c/r If I am pretty confident I have the best hand, and I think he will bet if checked to?

    Yeah, unless this guy is terrible, what worse hands do you expect him to pay you off with when you c/r the turn? He almost never has a draw here, so it's most likely wa/wb. If he's an idiot overplaying 7x or 88, a c/r is not the way to maximize value out of those hands. C/c and lead river or just leading the turn is much better.

    PS: The fact that this is an unraised pot makes a world of difference. A turn c/r would be a lot better if the pot was raised preflop.
