MP is a very strong reg $100s+ (21/16, 400hs). CO is thinkingreg1 mentioned in earlier hand. Huge MTT winner, top highstakes reg etc. BU is a fish. SB and BB are regs.
I want to try to understand thinkingreg1's thought process here, given the assumption that he presumably believes this is a profitable play. I think it's pretty non-standard play, but I'm not gonna say it's bad b/c that's frankly arrogant given our respective pedigrees.
OTR, it seems CO represents a thin value hand like AJ/KJ/TT vs missed draws or hands like 77. The bet might be ok, but betting turn w/c/t seems more usual?
Thoughts on the whole hand/situation?
