I check behind. He's not folding whatever he called the flop with, especially since he's going to be only faced with calling 13 into 33, a donk won't think that's a bad price for whatever he has. I'd rather just check behind, hope to hit, and know he'll pay off any river bet on any board.

Definite check behind on the turn, as already stated. Look at his flop action - checks and then calls your raise cold. He's not folding, so don't bluff him. Just check and see if you hit.

Also I'm not crazy about the flop raise. Your gutshot has questionable value since it's the ass-end, and your ace may be dirty as well (either of these players could have ace-anything, and that anything could already be paired or could just outkick you). I'd actually be happy to just call the CO's donk bet and hope that BB calls along, getting a healthy pot going. Basically I think the flop raise is not awful, but just calling is better. If your hand was As Ts I'd feel differently.

against a station like this I just shove flop. Raising small like you did just puts you in a wierd spot where you have so little left behind that you have zero fold equity on the turn. Making him fold on the flop is not a bad result here so just shoving the flop is fine.

As played theres no possible reason to bet the turn. Just check behind and suckout.

With hands like this you raise the flop to get a free card on the turn if you miss, so why bet?

jyms has a spectacular aura aboutjyms has a spectacular aura aboutjyms has a spectacular aura about
2/3 the Turn and call a shove. The flop Raise is standard people. He has 12 good outs and possibly a couple A's.

Best hand he has is a set. Making most of your draw outs clean. He has a ton of draws here as well. No way he's getting a free river with TT, KT or AJ

I think this thinking is a little flawed. I would rather semi-bluff with weak draws, and call with stronger draws. Basically the higher the implied odds the more likely a call will be profitable. When they are small, a semi-bluff will be more profitable.

I like calling the flop a lot to let in worse draws.
