Hello all,
I had discussion with my friend about that line. His arguments are that it generally sucks to build big pot out of position with overpair here, cause I am basically often "bluffing the best hand" and its too easy to pay off bigtime vs 2pair+ while doing it. My arguments were that I extract little more from hands that fold to turn second barell and I catch bluff attempts. Basically I like to balance my turn check and I do the stuff often. My friend suggests that I should do it with bluffs and stronger hands and not medium hands like overpairs. What do you think ?
