Re: Did I play this too fast?

Is there a reason you dont think its possible to protect hero's hand? If he can't protect his hand then I'm all for building a huge pot but both SSH and TOP say that in a big pot you should try to knock out opponents to increase your winning chances as opposed to building the pto...

I conceptually thought of protection betting and raises as a method of making it unprofitable for draws and the like to continue to pay into the pot on hands that you're likely winning, but unlikely to win the larger the pool of players. In this case though, you've got such a strong draw that I think building the pot for when you do pull it off outweighs whatever the odds you are of winning the pot UI.
I'm not arguing that it's not possible to protect this hand, but that you don't want to.
