100$ EPT Satellite on Stars
 

I played this hand after gaining the CL a few hands back, I played it against the former CL (BB) who was still a little upset about it.
the BB has a hard time letting go and defendes his BB with valor :

Is a call here obvious or any other thoughts ? this is a satelite so, buiding a huge stack is not as important.
What do you think about the action on the flop ?

Against tilty opponent, easy call.

Edit: I probably bet a little more on teh flop, like 700. Looks like a contin. bet.

I did make the call instantly, only to lose to a straight.
That got me thinking about my flop bet, at the time I didn't want him to fold, but after the hand I was thinking if I bet the flop big, I could have gotten him to fold.
But thats probably not the best outcome for me in this scenerio? (in general)

Even though your bet was too small, you shouldn't think results orientated. You want to trap him in and let him go all the way with you. Didn't work out too well here, thats variance [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
