Default Re: I bragged I made the right play, but was it?

I don't like the call preflop if she can only have AA or KK.

The pot has gotten too big to not play a hand like T8s that can make a big hand and take down a pot this size.

Also, if she is anywhere close to being competant, your raise might clear everyone else out, but you are getting 3 bet for sure.

Sounds like a good deal.

So pretty much what you are doing is helping her clear the field with her hand but reducing your implied odds if you hit your hand.

We would both benefit from clearing the field. Our chances of winning improve greatly once we get heads up. Once the pot gets this big, we shouldn't be concerned with preserving our implied odds. We should be trying to take it down as soon as possible.
