How many bets with the nuts?

I once stopped at about 6 bets. I expected to see a chop. I didn't even see the 3rd or 4th nut. Just some goofball, and I wanted to get to the next hand. I'll never stop again. Once in a while, you'll get a whole bunch of money from some drunk dude who justs wants to bet. These freeroll situations can only pay off, so take them.

Canterbury Park 6/12, about 3:00 am today. Board reads KJQ4T, with no flush. Three players get to the 5-bet cap, and the way they played, two of them were going to the felt if possible, but were saved by the cap.

Hands: KJo, QQ and ATo.

Go to the felt.

If he would bet a 100 with a non nut he would be a retard literally, if you're so fond of money, don't ya believe there are honorable ways to earn them?

Have you ever even played live poker?

I would go to the felt. Then, I would have security escort me to my car.

Once I stopped after 10-15 bets or so when I had JK on a board that was 9TQxx.

Of course, my opponent had 8J.

That's the last time I made that mistake.

Once I went a lot of bets with the second nuts in an online hand and posted about it, and everyone thought I should have went more bets/to the felt. Going to the felt live is a no brainer.

I'd say 4-5 bets, if he's a retard, why ruin his night? Punish him with a few bets if he's not having the nuts. Then stick to poker. If you like stealin candy from a baby, why not doin that instead?

right...let someone else stack the retard instead of you...this is the most retarded. advice. ever.

Poker is about stealing candy from babies. It is about predation. Predators in the wild are not nice. They do not attack the strongest, they attack the weakest. They attack the juveniles, the pregnant, the sick. They do not take on equal opponents. They overwhelm weaker opponents with unfair advantages, such as size or numbers. Poker players do the same, taking advantage of, for example, the ignorant player or the drunk player, at least good ones do (these comments are in part taken from Al Schoonmaker's excellent column about poker and predation, which I do not have handy).

99, hoping that since he still has a lil on the table he will rebuy to make up for his big loss.

I say 8 bets because by then some schmuck at the table will notify your opponent that you have the nutz. Thats when his face will turn white, he will start to feel sick, and he will toss in that last bet for you just in case he might still win.

I know this from experiance... happened on Thanksgiving sometime after midnight at the Borg. All I could do was think of this thread and chuckle. Poor schmuck couldn't slow play his aces fast enough until the river when the board was AQxQQ (I held AQ). I'm not positive, but I think he started to cry.

Anyone who doesn't spend all night raising every bet they have hates money.

The only reason I would stop is because of how long it would take to raise 100 bets.

How long does it take to raise one more time?
