I'm not sure about either of your assertions.


In any case I maintain that, and this has cropped up in other threads recently, when you have a better idea of what your opponent holds than vice versa, you surely do better to see the flop than to bash it all in. Look at it from his POV - he raises on the button and I call. I could have anything. He's guessing on the flop much more than me.


Incidentally if you make a habit of this play it might be right to occasionally call in the BB with A-big, and check an Ace high flop.
