Default Re: 99 Full house-- slowplayed too much??

Middle set is too easily outdrawn to slowplay, even on a relatively safe looking board!

Uh this is patently false. We're heads up, and we're winning this just under 19 times out of 20 and we aren't trying to push him out of the pot. Unless he has AA he'll need both the turn and river to hit him to beat us.

Which is not to say we should slowplay. I'm not as firmly in the "never slowplay under any circumstance ever even if your cards are flipped over they'll call" camp most of the forum adheres to, but if he has an A he'll raise us and if he doesn't we won't get much action anyway. Bet out or checkraise the flop depending on your mood; I suspect they're about equal here.
