Making the most out of Quads...twice |

Posted Tue Nov 08, 2005 2:17 am GMT by Jauron
Just a total look at this thread, although I did manage both times to get as much money as possible which for some dumb luck reason I seem to do most of the time when I get them.
The first one was an easy call preflop with another caller and then I hit the flop hard, knowing that Ace is gonna get me paid, it was hard to smooth call the bet, but it worked out great. I have a hard time smooth calling sets for some reason. Had I known another 6 was coming I probably would have slowed down, but at the point I moved in I felt they both had a solid hand and had too much invested to let it go.

Can you imagine he limped with Aces, got raised preflop and smooth called? Very sneaky and it's not a bad play heads up I guess. I have the deck crippled on the flop and hate I have to check it hoping he's got something he likes, but I get action each check and the river got nuts. I almost messed up and called on the river, it was late. Still a nice hand to end the game on.

You must have been sitting high up in your chair after those ones. Nicely played.  Its so nice when you get the near nuts - or in this case THE NUTS and your opponent overplays his top pair.
