Alright guys, my first post on here in a LONG time. Haven't played at all since October, when I quit cold-turkey to focus on grad school. But summer's almost starting and I'm on top of work, so I'm just starting to get back into it.
Anyway, I've always considered defending my big blind one of my weakest areas. I used to fold way too much, so I'm trying to work on it. Here's one hand that I'd like input on. Haven't been at the table long, but my impression of this guy is that he's not an idiot.
