I hate the Stop and Go but perhaps it is better than a push here.

So push or...

I agree that slowplaying usually means trouble. The board was relatively "unscary," so I checked to see if I could "catch someone up." In retrospect, I might have raised more on the...

Re: $109 facing a bet into a dry side pot, I turn into an idiot

I fold here.

I figure that we are both going to call down to push the short stack out. So I am not going to get aggressive. I assume that they are thinking along similar lines. When they push I...
