This is exactly right. I'm always amazed how many people insist on slowplaying big hands and then end up winning a small pot. Why? Just b/c they want to have "trapped" someone with a river c/r with the nuts. Just last night I saw a guy flop a boat from the BB. He checked the flop and it checked around, turn was checked around, and he checked the river from the BB and it was checked around. Incredible. Always get more money into the pot when you have a monster. If they don't have anythhing, they don't have anything, but build the pot when you have a big hand. Also, at these levels everyone slowplays so if you play a hand fast it actually disguises your strength b/c they'll never figure you for a huge hand. Because they'll be thinking, "He can't have a big hand, he would have slowplayed."
