Sure thing. I see where you are going with your response, I appreciate it.
Him coming out and betting the turn tells me has made something (like you said two pair perhaps…thats what I was thinking in the moment). Hands like J 8 or J 9 are ones he could definitely be holding. In other words, A 10 off doesn’t beat much anymore. And I have two behind me. They folded, which was frustrating. If they aren’t in the hand and it’s heads up, I think I flat and take a river. And no, I don’t think he would have slowed down, even if the 4 to a straight came out. He had been playing pretty fast all day, but had not been caught bluffing.
Hope that makes some sense as to my thought process. Thanks for responding!
