Default Re: $109 facing a bet into a dry side pot, I turn into an idiot

Had a similar hand myself recently.. I thought it was a bad play at the time, but then wondered whether it might not be +EV - he is, after all, getting a better hand to fold without essentially risking any more chips.

Your villian's play wasn't nearly as bad. He had a big stack. My villian really needed shorty to bust and his hand was even worse.

On the one hand I could call more easily because I had a big stack, but the bet to you was only 200 and with some implied odds too you could have picked up a nice pot without risking much more and in that case as 2nd stack, busting shorty is more beneficial to you.
