    I dont understand this call by him on the turn? He has me set up perfectly to bet the river and I will fold obv.. But he checks? Is this weak play standard?

    He called on turn with a gut-shot shtraight draw, with 2 overs. Was chasing.

    He called the turn because he's dumb...there's a lot of bad players at this level. He only has a gut shot and this is true that he probably could have pushed you off the hand with a bet.

    I think you should have thrown out a continuation bet on the flop...he's not going to call with king high and no draw...or atleast he shouldn't. There are plenty of weak players out there...just keep track of them and take advantage of it.
