Re: Fast or slow - flopped boat
Although I might have bet this flop, this is a perfect hand for slowplaying, I would think. You've got a monster hand, and there are some draws to 2nd best out there (straights, flushes, sets, and lower boats, and yes, sure, runner-runner quads) but very few to a better hand than yours.
But I think I disagree with the others about check-raising. You would definitely get another few small bets on the river, but a check-raise is a strong play (I think one of the very few things that the average micro player actually notices) and it has a good chance to slow down your opponents.
On the turn. I might have now bet out, but I definitely liked the 3 bet after UTG + 1 raises.
River seems like you did exactly what you needed to do! Hope you didn't get beaten by quad 9s!
