Re: Quads?(PLO8)

You should always ask yourself, why are people calling. One guy has an ace, that's why he called your bet. There are 4 aces in a deck of cards, so what does the second guy have? There is no low draw, he surely can't be peeling one off with a flush draw when he knows two people have aces. So that leaves the nines in the deck. Either he has 99 on the flop, or is an idiot.
Usually when a flop comes say 66K and I have A6 and bet the pot, then get atleast 2 callers, I know someone has KK. It's a lot harder for underfulls, but on the turn, once I have quads I know the aces are split so I can take it nice and slow.

Excellent reply.
I thought about that immediately and checked both the turn and river. The river was a 7, one guy had 2/3/X/X for nothing and the other had A/3/4/Q, I won the pot with trip aces with king kicker. However I was wondering if it was wrong since I had shown strength, I was thinking it was just bad play to check it down after potting it and I was basically giving the pot away, but I guess its better that way in the long run and I wont lose much that way.
