Re: Another big pair out of position short handed
I agree this is a problem, but this player was playing WAY too tight for a 4-handed game, so that's why I had my breaks on. The other thing that popped into my mind is that if I CR the flop, all of a sudden the pot is getting uncomfortably large and he may be calling with an underpair to mine (like JJ, for instance) - and will blow me off the hand later... in addition, it's very possible he has AA,KK or AK.
I think the best line here would have been to CR the flop and lead the turn, then fold to any more action as he would almost certainly have a better hand than me calling there. But I'm not so sure on this line being best... any more suggestions?
edit: another way to play this was to lead out on the K turn- any merit to this?
