I agree that the board was scary, but might it not be equally scary for them? I think because they only bet 1/4 the pot I decided to try a raise and see what was what. But maybe it's just better to fold this unless it is checked to me, as I say I'm new here When they checked the turn I still wasn't really sure where I was so I bet again. I have this idea that when I have a hand, the only way to get infomation on my opponents is with a bet, but I can see this could be taken much too far. Would you tend to see their checking as suspicious? Holding a set and waiting for me to bet into it? I decided they were drawing but did I just get lucky? I would certainly have folded to a re-raise
