seems like a lot of money to put into an unraised pot to me. I like what doyle says in his book. Never go broke in an unraised pot.

Yea, but he also says stacking somebody by getting it in on the flop with pair+flush draw is sweet. Or if he doesnt say that, he should. There is no hand that we're too far behind aside from a set. It'd be nice if our pair was the top one, but whatever. The bet sizes work out pretty nicely.

I like it.

(And I like that you'll get more action on your big made hands later when you play them the same way, too)

I was really hoping he had top pair and a weak kicker to get him to lay it down. Turned over 97 and got his boat. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

Just call his flop reraise. You are getting better than 4:1 from the pot, so you're perfectly priced in without relying on implied odds. Re-evaluate on the turn.
