Default Re: The beauty of slowplay

Your line on the flop should be check-push IMO.

The only significant action you are going to get from another player on any street after this flop is from AA/KK, or trips, or the small flush draw. You should get all their money in on the flop. All of those hands will pay you off often enough on that flop to make pushing worthwhile. Based on your preflop raise they will think you have any high PP and call with a variety of hands.

And if they fold, thats not so bad. When you play it out like this any paired board is going make you wonder whether you are beat. Thats not the position I want to be in if I am slowplaying.
