Tough spot for me. When he bet flop close to pot, i thought "full house!" instantly and actually wanted to fold right away but i felt like i had to call once. Then he bets HUGE on the turn and then i had enough. When i reviewed the hand, it looks like he is protecting his hand with TT-99's. But he could be a bad player who plays 44's like this. He may tried to get max value from the fishes but the size of the bet doesn't look like a valuebet at all. Why wouldn't he bet like 3/4 of the pot if he had a full house and maybe let the fishes get a chance to hit a flush? No idea what to do here...

Hello,

I would lead out on the flop myself.

As played, I would call turn as well. He is probably having 89/8T in his range, also he could be betting TT/99.

Best,
Plamen
