On the turn piosolver has us checking back most of our NFDs, but I think his point is that in a real game the turn x/r will occur too infrequently and the NFDs can probably just always be profitably bet on the turn (exploitively). That's because a lot of value gets check-raised on the flop and he argues that a human opponent will be too unlikely to adjust to high turn barrel frequency by heavily slowplaying strong hands on the flop. The author (or anyone for that matter) can correct me if I'm off about anything here.

Not sure, you can ask support in the live chat thingy:

They might agree to give you one since you've been inactive for so long.

^ I was wondering about that as well, but if we're not bluffing the Axhh hands then it doesn't seem we would have enough bluffs unless we bet more 22~77 on turn. If he really is under-defending and folds two-pair here, that would seem to mitigate the problem that we block part of his folding range with those bluffs.
Anyway, interesting video! Would be even more interesting to talk about playing draws OOP on drawy turns either as the PFR or after having called in the blinds and check-raised the flop. This is quite a complicated topic I feel and I have yet to find a video anywhere dealing with this.

Use bonus code "500DEAL4U" when creating an account.

That's of course the long-term plan, but I need to pay for rent and food in the meantime.

For the QJ hand I'm curious why you don't even consider a turn x/r? If you're checking the flop a lot in that spot it seems like it would make sense to have some strong hands in your turn checking range as well so he can't just go crazy with gutshots, no?

So I've been building up a roll playing 50NL on PartyPoker for the last six weeks. But since I've already completed the $500 deposit bonus I'm thinking I will just play there for the rest of the month until I can sell enough points for the $500 cash reward and then I'm thinking about moving to another site.
However, I'm looking at http://rakeatpoker.com/rake.php and seeing that the average rake in bb/100 that the average player pays on other sites that are not stars or FTP is much worse. For example, if were to switch to 888 I would get $400 in bonus money but i would also be paying an additional 3.5bb/100 in rake compared to what I'm paying now on Party. I earned my bonus on Party approximately at a rate of $100 per 8k hands played at 50NL 6-max. But playing on 888 would mean that I would pay $140 MORE in rake per 8k hands played which renders the bonus money pretty meaningless.
I guess my question is, given the absurd rake on most sites for 50NL should I just be looking to move back to Stars where I've already used my deposit bonus? Or is the competition on a site like 888 really soft enough such that adding in the $400 bonus it would be worth playing for one month? Or should I just stay on Party?
@Ben Sulsky: Your reply here is confusing to me. You're aware that the board was paired and our boat is the effective nuts on turn and river, right? Given that we don't block Qx which is calling very often vs your chosen sizing and we will get to the river with a lot of missed draws that we want to bluff, wouldn't it make sense to overbet-shove river with our hand to get more value from stronger part of his range like flushes and allow us to bluff more of our missed draws?
