Why do you think this is the case? We should be raising turn often when we have 7x or 44 here.
You could also lead turn and lead river.
The idea that a river c/r is magically stronger than turn c/r + river bomb seems very odd to me on this board.
Granted, a read matters here on V a lot in terms of line selection, but I think you're making an odd assumption. Let's face it, the #1 thing driving their calling tendency here is the strength of their hand, not the street where we choose to raise.
