Big Pot = Calling Station Fool?
I know I made the righ pre-flop play (raise), after that I'm not too sure. I felt I was behind, but the pot was getting big. Is this a case when it's ok to be a calling station? I'm interested in how others would play this.
BB- TAG 200+ hands, UTG- LP 20 hands, UTG+1 - LAG 110+ hands, MP2 - LAG only 5 hands. Thanks.

Re: Big Pot = Calling Station Fool?
seems okay to me, not sure what utg+1 could possibly have to beat you (JT or QT maybe? )

Re: Big Pot = Calling Station Fool?
I just noticed the converter messed up the hand history. Hopefully this will be correct. (for Bison, the original was from my processed histories, this one I had Party email me). The original showed a poster and omitted the BB(TAg) from playing the hand. sorry.

Re: Big Pot = Calling Station Fool?
As a side note, how many BB's do you consider a "BigPot"?

With the 3rd [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] and the aggression that came with the 2nd [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] on the flop I'm pretty sure someone has the flush. No way I can fold at this point though, right?) [/ QUOTE ] The aggression could also come from someone holding a T, or from someone who slow played AK on the flop... even a 9 will make some players turn up the heat. Sure a spade is possible but most players wont react stongly here for a flush draw unless they have 2 spades + another connecting card (such as Q [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]).

Re: Big Pot = Calling Station Fool?
Looks fine. I fear AK/QT/JT more than the flush.
