$11 bluff in the money

[Bob Bryant]

Button has been spewing chips, betting at missed flops and folding to re-raises. Thoughts on my play?

I would have just pushed PF. The absence of his push/raise PF, makes your hand look pretty strong. With your call....pushing on the Ace flop is your opportunity to exercise
your remaining FE. The check/raise doesn't make him go away if he has a smaller piece IMO.

Why would you check preflop? Push! I also don't think that the checkraise is big enough to make villain fold.

If button isa fish or whatever just push preflop. K8s its very good when its 3 handed,the button folded the SB completed, ure the BB and u have 4x the BB.
