. SB bets $6 and limper calls. You raise to $45. SB calls and limper in the cut-off folds. Heads-up to K
turn. SB checks.
What should you do?
Correct Answer: Check behind
You have a good hand but not one you can get three streets of value from. Check the turn and bet the river if you are checked to again. Hands like top pair, average kicker are never going to get called by a worse hand if you try and get three streets of value for them. So just check and see a river card.
