for the rest of the hand if you won't get all your chips in i think you should fold but if you will then i think you should check call.....that way times that he has it are balanced by the times that he bluffs off to you with hands you beat....
if you just hammer your nut hands into oppenents you don't gain enough value for the times when you are coolered...
and on top of that with an aggressive opponent...you are missing value by checking raising because he almost always folds and he almost always bluffs more money to you on the turn....
Firstly, your last response was well said..., and as always, I appreciate the comments.
Secondly, I am in agreement with you on the above and so now a decision had to be made whether we go all the way or fold now. Hence, we tank here to re-evaluate action/play.
Eventually, I came to the conclusion that about the only thing that really beats me here is the villain possibly holding a 10 (ie. likelyhood being J10, Q10 or even A10). If he does, then so be it. Consider it 'variance' so we decide to flat all the way in the hopes we are good at show down...
