Default Re: 44 BB defense, river check-fold.

[ QUOTE ]
If you are going to defend then I would 3 bet preflop then bet on the flop.

My EV goes up a lot on the flop. I'm also having trouble with overaggressive players who will cap with just about anything they raised here. Being out of position sucks.



This makes it tough to call down when I hold a small pair.

I'd feel better check-raising and folding to a 3 bet here than 3-betting preflop, having him cap, and have no idea where I stand.
