Well that's a bad flop.
Almost checked to peel but felt like he's just going to 3barrel me all day if I check and there are so few boards I can call down on and given I can have all three sets and KQ it's hard for him to raise unless he at least has a pair/oesd, flush draw or 2p+ which we're not doing well against

Because 4 high is better than pocket aces postflop.
