    Default Learning the Turn - TPNK NL10

    My ABC game is very aggressive preflop and flop, but rarely includes firing on the turn without improving. I'm working on adding selective aggression to the turn and river. I plan to post several of these HH's over the next week or two.

    Villain is 65/25/2.5 over about 150 hands, and he seems to chase a bit but can fold a hand. I put him on overs here, but who knows?

    $0.05/$0.1 No Limit Holdem
    5 players
    Converted at weaktight.com

    Stacks:
    UTG ($3.77)
    CO ($8.67)
    Hero ($9.85)
    SB ($10.58)
    BB ($15.23)

    Pre-flop: ($0.15, 5 players) Hero is BTN
    2 folds, Hero raises to $0.35, 1 fold, BB calls $0.25

    Flop: ($0.75, 2 players)
    BB checks, Hero bets $0.75, BB calls $0.75

    Turn: ($2.25, 2 players)
    BB checks, Hero bets $2.25

    Possible I'm facing a better Jack. More likely I'm facing a flush draw or middle/bottom pair. I don't typically 2-barrel here, though. Thoughts?

    I think it's bad if you dont bet here against this type of villain.
    Bet again on the river if a blank hits.

    Yeah against this player especially you have to bet 3 streets, you get called down with so much worse. This is a good case to two barrel against most opponents as well.
