    Default Another woody checks the turn calls the river/misses value w. his over pair/blah blah

    Villian in this hand is TAGish and probably a winning player. Not as good as me though.

    Seat 1: Dux1965 (US$45.02 in chips)
    Seat 2: Woody (US$200.65 in chips)
    Seat 3: galactico (US$51.75 in chips)
    Seat 4: Doctor Z (US$90.50 in chips)
    Seat 5: Joethekid (US$15 in chips)
    Seat 6: Bbcolts sits out
    Doctor Z: posts small blind US$0.50
    Joethekid: posts big blind US$1

    dealt to Woody [J J]
    Dux1965: folds
    Woody: raises to US$4
    galactico: calls US$4

    ----- FLOP ----- [7 3 5]
    Doctor Z: checks
    Woody: bets US$9
    galactico: folds

    ----- TURN ----- [7 3 5][2]
    Doctor Z: checks
    Woody: checks
    ----- RIVER ----- [7 3 5 2][2]
    Doctor Z: bets US$12
    Bbcolts sits back
    Woody: calls US$12

    I have posted a number of threads recently where people have told me i've been making a mistake by checking the turn as I should be value betting. The fact is I like to be the turn with strong hands or piss hands and only medium hands against weak opponents. Is this wrong? Do we think I'm a tight passive monkey not swinging from the value tree?

    Who bets the turn here and how much? Whats our plan if he raises?

    Bet for sure, $15-$20. Villain probably has an overpair too, 88-TT or maybe 66 (JJ+ probably would've gotten busy pf if he's aggressive). If he raises then it's tricky; a straight/2 pair is unlikely but a set is very possible. If he does raise it'll probably be a push, giving you just over 2-1, and I'd probably call (if he minraised I'd push). I think you'll see 88-TT here a lot.
