Default Re: $200 Caesar\'s 12 pm JJ hand vs. tourist

First of all, I did assign a range. Any Q, any 10, any flush draw, any straight draw. Villain will obviously call with any 10. He has a huge stack, is fully committed to the pot, and doesn't know how to fold "two pair" here. Thinking that he will fold a 10 is borderline retarded. Maybe he folds underpairs but probably not. If he is check raising with an underpair he thinks it is strong.

Now I really don't understand the next part of your argument. Assuming that he has a draw, a shove is bad (we will be paying him off when it hits)?? Certainly any hand that is beating us will call. But many hands that we are beating are also coming along. You are missing the point - a draw is a hand that we are beating!

So then it becomes a question of; Am I such a good player that I can lay down what is probably the best hand because I will have a better opportunites later?

No one in this forum, or in high-stakes is even close to being "good enough" to pass any edge, IMO.
