Point is if you're going to try to let your opponents catch up you're probably better off assuming they already caught a piece of the flop and just extracting value from there. The vast majority of live player hands are draws. They arent going to pay off a river on a missed draw and it would suck to only get 1 street of value out of them by letting the flop check through. You already said you had 1 full stacked calling station in the mix so you can pretty much always count on her to give you action. What more do you need?
Very nice post javi.
Last night, in my card room, I played a hand almost exactly similar, had JJ instead of KK, tilted, reloaded
Villian paid 3 streets including an all in on the river. $35PF 3bet, $45/$85/all in. Similar board texture, all under cards.
I also play in a home game that, once in a while, has a similar dynamic to what you describe. In my experience, with over pairs, perhaps not making big pf raises could somewhat disguise your hand. I just don't agree with ops plan at all. AA/KK are the hands that end up being the usual big profit hands.
And you had someone in the hand who is sticky.
And you just stacked them. I would be piling money in as quickly as possible, each street.
