Re: What\'s the most you\'ve won when flopping quads...
[ QUOTE ]
[ QUOTE ] Easy flop bet. [/ QUOTE ] No, but easy turn raise. -Diplomat [/ QUOTE ] I wondered about when to show my stuff, especially against players that are just terrible. Would a flop bet look like a steal, or would they all pee themselves and go running? And if I bet the flop, I'm probably limiting any action after I raise the next time. And certainly 9 BBs wouldn't have gone in on the river. Players were cold-calling turn raises and paying off everywhere so I wanted to keep everyone around to hit their boats. The turn raise might have been a good idea. Overcards to the T would have hung around. But if something under a T comes out on the river, I'll get no action (unless a T, JJ, QQ, KK is out there. But I'd have heard from those pre-flop or on the turn). |

It looks just like a steal because the blank mass that I like to call the "unimaginative mass of poker players," loves to think that everyone plays the say and that no one would bet quads. If you get raised, call it on the flop and c/r them on the turn. |

I would've loved a check-raise, but I was on the button and the action man was in the SB. I needed him to bet out. He raised the river so I got him that way. |

Re: What\'s the most you\'ve won when flopping quads...
I once capped every street with flopped quads. I had TT and the flop was TT7. He had 77. He said he didn't think anyone would play a boat or quads that fast. Slowplaying is for fish.

[ QUOTE ] Easy flop bet. [/ QUOTE ] No, but easy turn raise. -Diplomat [/ QUOTE ] Trying to do the math on the turn raise... 6.5 BB after flop check-around. Bet, call, call, Hero raises, (SB probably folds facing 2 cold, but he sucks so ??), fold, fold, call, call, call. 14.5 BB after turn betting. Now I'm up against three players and none of the passives are going to be into me. My only real hope to beat 20.5 BB would be if the player on my immediate right tries to check-raise me with a Queen trapping all the others. But I didn't see anyone willing to do that. The only other two people who had check-raised at the table were out already. |
