This is a situation that I really hate. You raise pre-flop with Ax, and a semi-spastic, tricky player with whom you've played before calls in the BB calls. The board pairs, and you get check/raised, possibly leaving you with few outs if you're behind. Sometimes he'll three-barrel his own ace high. Under what circumstances do you continue, and how far do you usually call down?
