Standard.

Add a limp re-raise somewhere and I think I like it a lot more. Needs more cowbell.

I think this gives away the strength of your hand. You don't want to lose your customers, now do you?

Good point. I completely forgot about this. I guess if you did this, the poor, poor guy who bet into you on every street except for the river with a better hand would know that you had the GrannyMae and immediately fold.

On a side note, it's actually sort of funny - it seems like the last 3 or 4 times I've gotten this hand, I've pushed it as hard as I can, and I always end up winning. Is this due to a tight table image or just the sheer power that this hand possesses? It would be interesting to see the win rate with grannymae from various zooers. I bet it easily exceeds that of AA or any other mortal hand.

I have a feeling you had the best hand.... (up against some sort of J5 or 76)

I seriously doubt this...

well played. Just like Aces slowplying gets you in trouble. Solid value bet on the end.
