Anyways..... in a situation like this do you try and start a raising war on the turn, or wait till the river as I was intending to do? Both players Semi LAG.

Thx.

Raise the turn for christ's sake!!!!!

Also, if you're timing out maybe try fewer tables.

Sorry, I realize the last part of the post is better suited for Small Stakes Limit Forum...

I play quads aggressively when I'm lucky enough to catch them. Sure, sometimes you'll bet out (or raise) on the flop and everyone will fold because they have nothing, but in those situations you're unlikely to win much even if you slowplay...those times when someone has a pocket pair (or even just big overcards and an aggressive attitude) you will make a freaking huge pile of money...you can't risk it by getting cute.

My .02,

Timing out is your punishment for playing so badly.

That's too bad that you disconnected on the best hand. I'll echo what was previously mentioned: raise if you have the nuts.

Maybe..just maybe... it is OK to wait to raise until the turn, depending on the texture of the table, but to not raise the turn was horrible.

Also, remember to check the batteries in your wireless mouse!! I got KK and AA simultaneously on two tables yesterday, capped both preflop, then -- bam, no mouse. The software (Logitech) is supposed to warn me about low batteries, but for some reason it no longer does. One more reason for PP to add keystroke actions.

Someone said he flopped a set to my AA, but who knows. Still sucks.

What do you mean reset your disconnect protects? I've never actually used one.
