Default Re: Fischman flop a boat and bets it

If you have the balls to do it, this often is a moneymaking play. Was the flop 772 or 722? The villain will have a hell of a time putting him on the boat for the rest of the hand.

That's fine and dandy, but you forgot since you bet the villain isn't going to BE in the hand a majority of the time... the hand will be over and you will have won a ssmall pot with a monster. It's not a terrible play if you're a super aggressive player with that image, but Fischman was probably playing the tightest at the table. Since he was he should have NEVER made this play.

I entirely disagree. Heads up, betting into a flop that was checked to you is standard enough that it's not a big deal. Basically, if he checks here, unless villain catches something on the turn, hero isn't winning a big pot anyway.
