What's the best way to get these hands paid? Should you just bet the flop? Title: Re: You can't trap a dog Post by: Ironside on September 03, 2005, 04:26:30 PM i think a small raise on river might have led to tom making a stab at it of atleast calling a $5 or $10
you were nver going to double up with quad aces Title: Re: You can't trap a dog Post by: snoopy1239 on September 03, 2005, 05:01:19 PM It's that fine line between making the small value bet or betting big to make it look like a bluff.
In general though, I sometimes feel like betting quads as soon as they hit is the best option. How often do you get paid by trapping? Title: Re: You can't trap a dog Post by: RED-DOG on September 03, 2005, 05:01:40 PM But you can catch a Snoopy dog, eh snoop?

This gives them a liscence to stick in a bluff if they were drawing or a bet if they now think they're ahead. Or is it best just to trap the flop? hmm |
