Just bad timing, right?

I wouldn't push. I don't see the point in that. I'd probably go for a check-raise actually. Yeah, with the same results eventually no doubt.

Two questions for you: Why are you letting him limp in so often? Why did you bet $3500 into a $400 pot?

[Wevie]

1. Absolutely crap cards - I remember a 27o and a 23o.

2. Hell if I know.

edit: #2 is probably why I rarely see first.

Just make a normal bet on the flop, call a raise, call down turn and river.

Bet, if he raises, you can then either muck it or push. But by pushing you don't give yourself a chance to get away, when in many circumstances you could find a way to get away...
