UB 4-8 with mini-blinds

[Mike Haven]

my thanks to whoever mentioned the 50% reload bonus - just lucked into a hand that will help me get through the bonus period, i hope

whenever i have tried ub i have always noticed that every single player seems to try to slowplay at all times

today i got my own back, with the help of an attempted slowplayed AA and an ultra-optimistic (if not insane) gut-shotter:

It's not every single player, because I don't do it. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] In fact, I've found that because it's so prevalent to see people slowplay sets that when I bet out my set it blindsides them. Whoo!
