It checks around to Villian, who tries to slide in his entire stack, but only $115ish made it's way out there. I thought for about 15-20 seconds and both Villian and I got it all in on the flop. Villian had JJ and took it down.
I wish I could provide some great analysis as to why I did what I did. I think it was the hours of folding which is what started my bad thinking. If I had $500 in front of me, and was up for the session, I probably would not have made the same decision. Earlier in the session, I laid down QQ post flop on a 9-8-3 flop to OMC. Knew I was beat, only called preflop to set-mine. So I've showed the propensity to know my opponent's range and make solid folds. But with the Villian in this hand, I think I misinterpreted his loose calls preflop and bluffs on earlier rivers for general, overall lagginess. Although he's been loose, he hasn't 3-bet preflop yet, so I know darn well what he has. Just had a frustrated "I'm not folding again" "Not against this guy" and "Not with all unders on the flop" type of moment.
Definitely got to work on this. Thanks again.
Definitely can't blame you for the line you took. Been there, done that myself. Given V's line pre, it's easy to think you're ahead of his range and on this safe, dry flop. I probably would've taken the same line. I'm not saying it's the right line. I'm just saying I'd probably do the same thing. Especially when he throws out that large bet OTF, it's fold or shove time. You're not going to smooth call that given the respective stack sizes.
