Default Re: I was betting hard but should I have slowed down with 2 others?

I dont get the slowplay thing, but in this case I guess it worked to his benefit.. denefitely made a player note. Total passivity with the nuts from the flop, strange

I guess it depends on the table. But if you flop the nuts and you have players raising into you. I think it's better not to show aggression and let them keep throwing their money in. The object is to get the most value from each hand. Obviously slowplaying if no one was betting wouldn't be a smart move. However, if slowplaying results in multiple players calling max bets to the river when you have the nuts, then do it. Slow playing and check-raising are useful tools to have in your bag of tricks, the trick is to know when to use them.
