Default Re: Interesting hand from my session today

I bet/call here as well.

Actually upon reflection a checkraise/call seems like a good play, since you're fairly sure he'll lead out the river if you check. If you bet here there's a chance he'll slow down after the cap if you still lead into him and just call, and with that river I don't think he'd 3bet with TT.


Of course he probably only 3bets a checkraise with a hand that has you beat, but the pot is so big at that point you are kind of obligated to call, so you lose an extra bet when you're beat.

I think the EV difference would probably be pretty close to zero between these two lines though. I really don't want to open myself up to a 3bet here though so I probably still bet/call in the end because I'm weak like that.

Anyone correct me if I'm wrong in this line of thought?
