I hope he wasn’t planning on folding to a pre-flop shove. Even putting him on a very strong range, I don’t want to fold getting 3.5:1. The flop is a tough decision. I surely fold to a shove, but I can’t very well open shove myself. I’m probably just calling if I get the right odds and folding otherwise.
Shoving the turn is probably best. For some reason, I had a feeling he was trapping. I guess it was just that I thought he was really strong pre-flop.
On the river, I just wanted to have some fun. Obviously I don’t need him to fold often at all for this to show a profit, plus it just puts a smile on your face when it works.
