Default Re: ignore

I agree that this hand is pretty straight forward and boring. Our hand is too strong to fold. If we call, all the money is going in on the river, how can we fold, regardless of what falls on the river?

What if opponent is on A/Q of diamonds and the river is a rag diamond? We didn't see it coming at all, and we can't figure a rag to have helped his hand any.

A push is our best line because:

1. There is a slight possibility he'll fold (any possibility for us to take the hand down now and avoid elimination sounds good to me)

2. If he has two pair that we beat, he won't get away from it on a scary river card, we'll get paid off now.
