Default Re: Too aggro 3rd/4th?

I think third is pretty close among your three options

4th was probably taking my reads a little too far. I know the bettor probably has nothing but they both still have alot of overcards...

I think in this game with its low ante you can muck to a king raising up front and not feel too bad about it. He likely has kings or something else that is ahead of you so it is better to wait for a spot where you are a clear favorite. My understanding of this play is that it is a strong move when there is enough dead money overlay in the pot to make up for the % behind in the hand you are AND you can play for the pot heads up.
