Re: Flopped a straight, slow played it and saved my self an early exit
Would you still feel good about the way you played it if he showed AA instead? What if he showed KQ? What the villain shows, barring that he shows that you acted correctly on a read, shouldn't affect how you feel you played. Should I be happy about how I played if I fold KK and two players go allin with QQ and JJ and QQ hits a set? No. That's results-oriented. You should HATE that you passed up being allin against two underpairs. Same here. What you should be happy about is the K on the turn saving your bacon, not that you played the hand well. I don't like slowplaying the assend of the straight in an unraised pot.
