I think it’s the obligation of the more tenured members of the community to give the less tenured folks some outs when things go a bit sideways. So I’m going to propose two. The strictly utilitarian game-theory play with zero risk is to concede nothing, walk away, and sink the sunk cost. The ethical high road answer is to concede that you were out of line and watch all be forgotten thereby, which has a utilitarian premium as well: you’d make a friend. The stupid answer is to raise 2,6 off suit repeatedly with someone representing suited royalty who has clearly committed to shoving the flop on principle. You do you, but I see two good calls and one bad call.
