[ebaudry]

My preflop raise failed to thin the field.

I decided not to make a continuation bet here because I felt a 150-180 or larger bet would, if called, make an irresistably large pot on the Turn. And there were just too many players behind me.

It seemed fairly certain that calling the flop bet was going to leave me pot committed. I seem to get way more 8-10th place finishes than I should, and I imagine hands like this could be a factor.

I think it would be a relatively easy fold if the flop bet hadn't come from the short-stack. In a way, I didn't know much what to make of the two calls he got, but they seemed to signify at least some sort of strength.

What would you do?
