Party $2K NLH ring game.
2 folds
Big Lag(51-7)($3300) makes it $55
a fold
I($1700) make it $150 AKs
everyone folds and the Big Lag calls
Flop
$330) 9s,10h,Jh
I have the AK of hearts
Big Lag checks, I bet $375 and he makes min. check raise to $750.
OK, I have about 25% of my stack in and he wants another 25% to see the turn card. My options are call and if I miss completely on the turn face an allin bet of $800 with a $1800 pot. With about 11-12 clean wins and 5-6 unlikely wins. This is not a pretty picture for me.
Option two: Push
Option three: Fold, I dislike doing this against Big Lags, but it does feel like the deer has a gun this time.
I really wish that I had 1/2 pot bet the flop when he checked.
