You're on a roll. You get dealt AKs. You open 3X from EP (which is normal for you). An unknown guy and a super-tight guy both call. You make top pair (KK) on the flop and you're first to play so you c-bet 67%, again normal for you. Unknown guy shoves. Super-tight guy calls.
***** Then the BIG mistake - you call *****
Guess what? Unknown guy flopped a set of sevens.
Is there any bigger tell? Probably not, yet this is so enticing you do it all the time. People are so predictable, and you're not alone.
The whole point of opening rather than shoving is to leave yourself an out. So why not take it when it presents itself? Some day I'll figure that out.
