Your friends advice sucks. Why try to get pot committed preflop when all the hands are going to be running close? You may as well both flip coins.

In general, as you well know, I think you are playing too loose for the game. This situation really illustrates my point. If you are the better player, why keep on gambling in smaller and smaller % edge situations, when you know that a bigger edge will come along. You either end uo in marginal flop situations, as per your previous posts, or end up in situations like this when someone is more prepared to gamble than you. P10ker is another of this type, who has 100% more gamble than even the crazies on Stars. Although he is a different class. FWIW I would play tighter, and look to play in position and let him bet his money off. Also, imho, Fabsoul mostly sucks at the PLO game.
