Sunday Mil AJo in the SB

[WarDekar]

I was kinda setting it up to push the river but decided that I wanted to leave him a little left as it MIGHT give me a few more calls. Am I passing up too much value because of the fact that more often then not if he calls my river bet he's calling a push anyway? Immediately after I bet it I was hating myself for not stacking him completely.

That was the plan but for some reason I decided not to at the last minute thinking he could call thinner if I left him 900 behind, but afterwards I realized I"m probably just being an idiot and passing up value.
