I definitely wouldnt push. This reeks of a strong hand.

I'm sure it's different at 50's, but it doesn't reek of a strong hand at the 10's. Lots of guys with monster stacks play every hand, especially every amall blind, and not always by raising; sometimes they just auto-complete. They could be doing it with almost any hand at all.

Of course, the possibility of a trap always exists.

Since two out of the other three players have stacks no better than mine and they're about to pay some blinds, I think I'd rather just check and see if I can steal from the button in a couple hands, or else watch someone bust out in a hand or two, or both.

There are too many times when a monster stack like this will either call with crap and still wipe you out or have you beaten already, too. All in all, I'd rather see if I can apply some fold equity elsewhere in a minute or two, where I might actually have some.

Doh, my bad, I read it wrong. He's not in the SB, he's on the button.

Well, I still feel substantially the same. I'd play it normally against most guys by far and see what the flop brought.

I think if I was the big stack I wouldn't be limping; I'd raise or not play.
