Re: Live $1/$2 game, tricky AA, 250BB deep...
Does anyone ever check the dry flop for pot control?
Also, someone mentioned re-raising the flop and folding...? How do we put in > 1/2 our stack and then fold? And actually a meaningful raise is going to be at least to $300, leaving me with $200 behind... seems awkward to put in that ratio and fold.
If I block the turn, how much am I blocking with? $150 seems to be a great bet because it makes it VERY difficult for him to raise without KK (unlikely) or a 9. The problem with that though is I have to call a river shove if I check the river.
If I block smaller, it makes it too easy for him to raise.
At the turn, I really don't think he has a set. I think once he nuts the turn he would check behind or make a smaller bet. I'm pretty much convinced he has a 9 since he's the type to play every 9 available (A9, K9, Q9, J9, T9, 98, 97, and 96s).
Ugh. I hate this hand.
