Default Re: 2/4 nl deep play-along, interesting spot

Call because of stack sizes. getting 5-bet blows, as does getting your 4-bet called and missing. If getting your stack in preflop isnt reasonable or desirable, then don't 4-bet.

Yeah, I didn't realize this at the time but 4betting and getting called suuuuuuuuuuucks because of stack sizes.

So, I obliviously 4bet to ~$200, fish folds, lag thinks for a moment and calls.

My action?

A little other extra info: I had been surprised a few times in the past by how light he calls pot-sized 3bets preflop, both in and out of position. I thought(eternal optimism?) that he'd react in a more sane fashion to my 4bet preflop, but it's entirely possible that he called here with 77-TT or something like 87s. Implied odds analyses etc aren't exactly his forte.
