Default Re: Slowplay = bad

I have a headache. Don't limp with QQ and give a ring full of ace-horny partiers to hit an ace for 1BB, and if you're going to, be prepared to come back over the top of the raise.

Bet the flop. If you check the flop then raise when your LAG cooperates and bets. Get your money in then when you're ahead because to be honest I dont know how ahead you are by the time it gets to the turn and river.

In general, I think it's unnecessary to try to slowplay huge hands preflop because you're going to get action from low-limit partiers and the risk from letting a table full of them see cheap flops is too great. If you're playing at a very agressive table, and you're in early position with AA or KK, then maybe you plan to limp/reraise big, but that's about the only situation I like trying that with.
