AA max value on Q626 3-way

...which obviously isn't much and highly unlikely you are beat here. I just think that your plan here relies on the fact that co will bet when he can check behind with a ton of hands here and give the fish who could be drawing a free card.

If this hand were HU on the turn I would love the crai like some of you advocate. Given second reads etc it would make a lot of sense but being that we have the fish in with is betting here is better as you are more likely to get a call or calls and maybe even a 3rd street of value from the fish vs co betting/fish calling/you shoving and getting called mostly by hands that beat you.

cool, i like your reasoning. The fish in the blinds was the reason i bet the turn in this hand, but in retrospect i'm not sure that the bet was good - obviously it's not absolutely terrible. Hard to tell what is optimal. I still prefer a check-raise, cos i'm sure CO will assume bb is drawing and also want value out of him, so may bet those grey hands. That could be results orientated thinking tho, that's why i posted

cheers for the input
