Default Re: Tongue Lashings and the Ed Miller Approach

you said:

"To the OP:

Why do you want a bigger ace to fold? So you can make less when you hit 2-pair? Well I guess it doesn't matter because you didn't bet your 2-pair on the river when you hit it.

Did you ever think you were way behind on the flop when it was limp-reraised and capped preflop, and that what you were hoping for with your flop raise was to isolate yourself against the guy with a big overpair?

And why didn't you 3-bet the turn? If you thought you could value-bet it, you surely can value raise it?

My response: As I replied elsewhere, if a 4 comes and I get a bigger ace to fold, I don't have to share the pot.

And about thinking I was way behind on the flop--yes I did, but I also thought I was still in this if the right cards come. So rather than worry about what others would do to me, instead I am thinking about what I can do to maximize my chances to win this titanic pot. <font color="blue"> </font>
