Thats just it. Betting will disguise your hand. 60 or 90 still gives a flush draw decent odds to call and makes the pot big enough for someone to throw a sizeable bluff. Also look for a steal attempt if the flush doesn't drop on the turn.

So you say that you would give your hand away on the flop for 60 more chips?

That's just it though. I would raise with a draw here as well. So how can they tell which it is?

I might raise like JT/QJ/KJ here too.

Oh yea, I'm raising 88 here 100% of the time too. I would make it 120 total.

Default Re: ($5.50)Getting the most out of quads

Quads in an unraised pot, given the buyin, I minraise him on the flop. He bet 1/4 the pot. That kind of bet is a gutless feeler bet with a weak Jack.

He will check to you on the turn, if not minraise him again. Bet a little under half the pot on the turn otherwise. If he calls, fine, if he folds fine. You've got the deck crippled, you can't go nuts or they're going to know you have at least one nine.

Little under half pot or just over a quarter on the river. Your goal is to extract as much possible with a practically unbeatable hand - unless he has a flush or Jacks full, you won't be getting much more out of him.

Agreed you probably got the most out of him you could 80% of the time, but I would try to induce a bluff here. One question, why do you think BB lead out with 30 on flop? Even a paired Jack would make a bigger stab than 30?Typically when I see this play the initial bettor is begging to get a raise and then check raises to take down the pot. This works well when you have the set and also works well as a bluff (especially with a flush draw)? I think you raise him here and you just may get some action, or you can just call and sneak out another 60 or 90 chips? To me just calling screams "I am not afraid of the flush".

At a 5.50, this is usually because the guy doesn't like the slider.

Flop: If you call here with intent to raise later, a good % of 5.50ers will put you on trips (40% maybe. I use this as a bluff against some players with great success). If you raise here, the vast majority of 5.50ers are sticking in with a J or any draw.

Turn: This is a great turn for you and you can't waste it by slowplaying. When you've got a great hand and there are draws out, don't wait til the river to bet because you lose money from missed draws.
