Re: Couple of hands on chip accumulation vs stack preservation
I'm starting to agree with you on the 15K bet. The c/r was likely overkill. The extra 10K chips is not worth the risk of the free card or committing myself to the hand without any real info. What I meant is that, at that time, after the call and before the fllop, my plan for the hand was to c/r a zero overcard flop, bet 15K on a one overcard flop and likely shut down on a 2 or 3 overcard flop.
If he'd called from the button or BB, I would be more concerned with an overpair. I just didn't think he'd cold call from UTG+2 with 5 players still to act and the only covering stack already in. This may or may not be a reasonable assumption. I certainly would have reraised QQ, KK or AA in his spot, and sometimes JJ. I'm not looking to play a giant pot OOP with a big pair when I can bust on the bubble from 2nd place chipstack.
