i'd be much more keen to call PF, because:
a) it gives your better position more opportunity to take effect
b) it re-opens more action
c) even if you're behind, it gives you odds for sets
d) it keeps the pot smaller, which is better 'cause you don't have a huge hand
e) i think you have little fold equity in that situation

however, as played, you're giving up the leading position by checking behind on that flop. by calling down, you're losing the maximum against hands you lose to, and winning the minimum from hands you beat. in addition, you obviously have no fold equity.


on the river, you're really priced into calling. 5:1 is good.

LOL at your disclaimer Josem. Thanks for the reply.
I think that since he is often trying to isolate the raiser, since I KNOW I was, he folds Ax, Kx, hands pretty often as well as some pairs I beat but am not looking to let hit a set cheaply since he is so aggressive postflop.
So I think I had fold equity pf. On the turn, I think that I DO get action from pairs, and AK hands that I beat. However, I may let a diamond draw see the river on the cheap, but that is actually a small part of his range imo.
Still think my play was bad?

Bilbosan, I like how you think sir. I will now read your other threads to gleam further wisdom.
