Yup. Looking to get all-in. I love check-raising the turn if I'm smooth called on this drawless flop. I don't think folding pf is a crime.

I have to muck this pre-flop. The reverse implied odds on these big card bad kicker hands are just too big. Actually, my skill at minimizing them may be too small.

i like it. i can see an argument for folding but you are getting way too good odds to fold i think.

I'd fold it preflop too. The bet is good.
