I think checking/folding is out of the question here considering I flopped an open ender and am pretty much at the worst sitting on an 11 outer.
-Checking/calling seems just so damn weak I can't stand doing it... Maybe someone can convince me otherwise...
-Leading out and pushing if you get re-raised seems like a good option. If you decide to lead out here, your basically committing your whole stack with that one bet. The thing is, your betting 80$ - about pot sized bet, yet your committing your 500$ stack with that 80$ bet. Kind of uncomfortable situation, but what other options do you have?
-I decided to go for a check-raise, I figured if I'm committing my whole stack I might as well go for a check-raise, get some money out of AK making a continuation bet... and pretty much get it all in vs AA KK QQ.
He bet 80$-I check-raised to 300-he pushed i called he had AA and held up.
Do we all agree that your pretty much going to have to committ your stack with this hand or do any of you think you can get away from it?
