Yeah, that looks pretty standard at 50NL.

Anyway... raising the turn and calling a bluff on the river isn't THAT sick. I mean, maybe you had to be there or something. Personally, I think Allen Cunningham's ace-high call against Jamie Gold at the 2006 WSOP FT was way sicker than this, and that one isn't even that sick imo afaik eieio.

Plus, it's not as sick as this one sick call.

This guy one time called another guy with 10 high against his 9-high flush draw to win a big tournam... oh wait.

C'mon there's other reasons to CR the turn than to just set up the river c/c...
