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

Would a good player really fold for an extra $4 into a $24 pot?

Yes, with anything other than 10-10. Leading disguises your hand, check min-raising is downright awful. Good players bail here, bad players give you much less than you could have gotten by leading out. Check/calling I put somewhere in the middle as it can look like an idiot on a flush draw with a paired board. I bet this every single time at these limits, and get people to defend their hands. If someone at this limit bet into you, would you think they have a 9?
The first hand seems like a case where you were frustrated that you missed with a semi-premium hand and got lucky that he was bluffing you with air.
