Default Re: Pretty deep hand early on from WSOP

I don't think it is results oriented to say the flop raise is really horrible. It is very likely that villain has atleast an overpair, and if he doesn't, you will probably find out on later streets.

If you flat call, you get a chance to win a really big pot with little investment. Particularly if the 8 hits, the straight will not be at all obvious, and villain will pay off big bets.

I think this shows how the best way to take advantage of an ABC tight player is not always by playing aggressively.
