I fail to see how I'm being results oriented.. Are you really suggesting that there's a significant chance people will 5bet you here? Of course OP knows the players better than anyone else here, but getting a live donk to 5bet pre with 0 FE after openlimping and coldcalling a 3bet is a bit of a stretch to me.
I think reality is the polar opposite of what you're saying. Approving of the 4bet is being results oriented, since in this particular situation the hand played itself postflop, but most of the time, you're gonna face much more challenging boards, with your stack mismanagement creating perfect check/raising stacks for your opponent.
I am not expecting to get 5 bet often here. IIRC Button had 2300, BB had 1600, EP1 had 2600, EP2 had me covered. I was able to make it 800 or so to go total so if anyone else calls me other than EP2 there is less than one psb left on flop. Even when EP2 calls me there isnt much more than two psbs left in stack, so i dont understand ur comment about 'perfect checkraising stacks' escpecially when i am checking back some flops. Most importantly EP2 is a tilted, gambling live player who is going to make mistakes and get it in too light on dry boards, or make a transparent bluff, so i actually have implied odds with him.
Of course i could be creating a big clusterfkc with my reraise where it goes three or four way and i have to get out on too many flops, but based on the way this game plays and the stacks involved that really didnt seem likely.
