Default Re: A high call, and extracting with quads - 100NL

Okay, I take it back, they won't fold, but the action will dry up big time without a flush or straight card, and even then they might think T9 and slow down.

I don't love your line, but the more I look at it I can't find a way to extract more. The real issue is that when someone check/minraises on the flop after a bet and a raise, you know they have a great hand. Why give that away? Why not pretend to play your hand as if you are on a draw? At least, if someone bets the turn you can push all-in and maybe grab a call from someone who thinks you are pushing them around.

By betting you stole the lead from the button and now no one is going to bet without a dynamite hand. As in, by the button's play, I bet he would have bet the turn and you could've gotten some more money in the pot maybe.
