I'd cap the turn and call a river bet. Then I'd call myself a "freakin' donk" when he shows me 66, 88, or AA.

Default Re: slowdown??

Lol, how can u fold this preflop? Hell if it comes back at u raised, with 99 u can reraise it (unless the table is one of tightness)..capped, I would not cap it, calling it capped if its two bets back to u Im a litte wary but call.

To the OP question...NO. Do not slow down. If people are in on flush draws make them pay for it...seriously this much action the last thing u want to do is slowdown. I think u are ahead here. Only hand u need to worry about is QQ or JT, the latter I dont see in this hand.

I say cap the turn, call the river? (weak maybe) Depends on the river.

WOW. What the hell is 7Ts doing in that hand? This is how u make money at these tables. Sorry to hear that though.

Guy called 2.5 bets cold with 7Ts -- they love their suited hands. Damn.
