Default Re: I\'m confused and hate how I played this hand.

WWSD? (What would Stoxtrader do?)

I think he would cap. The benefit of this is:
a) Button might fold and you get position for the hand
b) You have initiative in the pot and will win more often when both of you miss the flop
c) Value against worse hands like AT/A9 and KJ/QJ that will never get away from a Jxx or Axx flop because of the blind-steal situation
d) Your hand plays fine in a large 3-way pot even if button does call 2 more.
