bleeding the sucker dry with quads

bet the flop harder. an underbet is ok, but not less than 1/3 pot.

Yeah. Against anyone I had played against before, I would never pull this underbet move, but the little I had seen from these guys didn't impress me (and since they're just-calling 40 after limping, they have to suck balls) so I figured I'd put a little move on them. My plan on the flop was to make it seem like my (overlarge) preflop raise was a steal attempt, and hopefully have one of them make a move at the pot.

On the turn, I'm just praying that one of them bluffs at the pot. Obviously neither has a big hand unless they miraculously have a full house; if they had a big pair they would've raised preflop. Checking lets them take a shot at the pot with trash, if they put me on a missed steal. Indeed, CO showed down 55 for not much of anything.

If I'm playing solid players, I'm betting $100 or so on the flop, then checking the turn (same play I'd often make with AA in this situation.)
