10NL AJ flops 4 of a kind

[hasanthadon]

how would u have played this? i had the best possible hand and i thought betting for value would scare people away.. was hoping for someone to catch a full house and go all in. i feel like i always wonder how to play 4 of a kind, so i figured id post it here.

thanks.

I usually just bet bet bet. Nobody thinks you have a J here they think your bluffin and they call down w/ any PP and Ax hands.

i bet that flop and see how i can get max value on later streets.c/r is good also

Four of a kinds are so rare that there's no reason to think about how to play them. Just bet, bet, get the most amount of money you can get in there as quickly as you can. Someone's sure to pay you off with any PP, AK, possibly AQ, pairs, etc.

I lead the flop and hope someone has PP and starts playing back.
