Swinebag:
too many nits at full ring 50NL. They rarely bluff the river. I fold. The only thing you realistically beat is a 3 barrell with AK.

treydj:
Your decision to check call the flop is ok.

I cannot understand your thinking of calling a pretty big bet on the turn with a view to folding the river when  7c hits.

It changes nothing from turn to river.  If you thought you were ahead on the turn - then I think you must call the river .

I would have called the flop, but when an overcard hits, and the third diamond appears - you have to ask yourself what are you beating? So I fold the turn and wait for a better spot thus avoiding difficult situations.

A read on the villain would also be helpful .......

Marty719:
Yea I think I fold turn a lot of the time unless villain has a history of barreling.  If you call turn, call river.

deanp27:
too many posts on here that lack information on villain (and hero as well) - you need reads/stats on the opposition to play poker succesfully

as played you need to make your decision on the turn - call turn means you should call river.

I don"t play much full ring anymore but it is far nittier than 6max
