Big Chips v MASSIVE Chips...

[GeordieGaz]

Ok, this hand has been bugging me all last night and all today. I know I made a few mistaked throughout the hand, however, I'm wondering if the worst mistake was the final one. This is the scenario.. Black Belt Poker tourney at the vic. I have around 110k chips (blinds 800/1600 200a) Avg is 60k. I'm quite comfortable with my table and I'm gradually building my stack when a guy comes and sits two seats to the right of me with around 250k!!! I tell myself that I'm not going to get involved with him at all, I don't need to as I can get my chips playing position and the players to my left are quite passive. However, this didn't go to plan :wall. We play 3 orbits and this guy is very aggressive, however he's too aggressive and has lost about 70k so is down to 180kish. I'm BB and it is folded round to the button (mr chip daddy!). He flat calls as does the small blind. I look down at :Ac: :4c: and can't help myself so try to take the pot down with a raise of 5k(biggest mistake of hand, OOP with chip daddy). Mr chip daddy calls quite quickly, great!, just what I didn't want but I'm determined not to let him bully me. The flop comes down :4h: :9d: :Ks:, I bet 7k and he flat calls. The turn comes down the :Kh:, I check (maybe a mistake?) and he fires out a bet of 5100 :unsure, I look at the pot and see that it is over 25k so I figure I gota call so I do. Now, this is where it gets interesting. The river comes down the :4d:, I now have the full house. I decide that I'm going to check-call, so I check but then this guy fires out a bet of 65k :eek. The pot is nearly 50k and he's overbet that. I certainly didn't expect that. What would be the correct play here? Do I make the call or do I just give it up as there'll be better opportunities? I went into the tank for about 5mins with this hand. I'll not say what I decided to do just yet but would like to know what people would do on the river here. I know I've made a mistake getting involved with him, but as soon as I said to myself that I wouldn't get involved with him, I knew it would inevitably happen! :$
