In Response to Re: should i have just checked the river and was it ok calling the turn? : Ok, i see what you are saying and your right, thats probably the MTT player in me in that thinking. I just dont like the idea of calling leaving him have so little left and leaving us with a tricky river decision if we miss. I think it could leave us exploitable if say we call that raise, miss the draw and he ships for his remaining chips and we have to fold. It then becomes obvious we where on a draw and shows how we play such a hand. I personally fold the turn unless he has a decent amout behind him.

It wouldn't make the play any better if it was an MTT, shoving turn is just knowingly getting your money/chips in bad and hoping you suck out

Plus if we miss our river decision is very simple, we fold.

Like saying I call the flop bet with the right price and then folding turn is bad because we are no not getting the right price.

If someone is laying you the right price to call, no matter what you or they have behind and you have no fe then the correct thing to do is call.

Yeah, my error: I shouldn't really have mentioned "We're not playing a tournament..." All I meant by that was that the shove or fold idea wasn't relevant in cash. We don't need to worry about winning all the chips or protecting our stack's fold equity, just making the best EV decision.
