Default Re: Bad Fold with a big pot?

Why would you not just bet the flop after three betting pre? Your hand is likely best and if you get a couple callers and an LP raises, you can go ahead and three bet. Plus, your check is scary after your preflop actions since people expect a bet; they could interpret it as three 8's or AA and check it through. And then you've given a disastrous free card.

As played...why would CO2 not raise the flop straight off in this big pot with a hand like AA, KK. Granted the call, reraise usually means a super holding. But it could also be something like 97s or 10-9s that is now trying to get a free look on the turn. I would call and then evaluate on the turn, betting if a favorable or scare card comes.
