I think it\'s time for a super super slowplay!
 
$33 on FTP

History: Villain and I pretty aggressive at the final table with our chip stacks going up and down.

Yes my line looks EXACTLY like what it is, but my thinking is, so what, I have such a huge lock on the hand that the most value I'm getting here is if:
a) he decides to bluff turn/river
b) he hits turn/river and calls a river bet/leads himself for value

Question: Am I 100% right in slowplaying this hand here? I've been debating this with some people.

Thoughts please, thanks!

Yeah also: Sorry about hand conversion, but an important note preflop: He limped for 1200 and I raised to 9600 from the button.

I was just being honest...and don't fret b/c all the good posters will no doubt arrive soon and praise your creativity/hand reading/analytical skills as well as your overall talent as a NLHE player.

only like 1/6 of his stack is in the middle, I don't think you can check that turn. I just don't see what he would continue with besides made sets/straights/flushes all of which are unlikely.

flop check is fine

plus he can pick up draws (pair+draw) on this turn.... bet turn 100%

I'd bet the turn small. Like you would, or he might expect you to, with the part of your pf raising range that doesn't like this flop.

However, I don't think slow-playing is bad in this instance. He's going to put you on largely JJ+, AK after the pre-flop raise. If he catches a set all the money is going in whether you bet or check so you've probably got more chance of getting chips out of him this way. If he had raise-called pf, I think 99+ is more of his range and I would then defintely bet the turn.

What's up with the giant raise PF though OP? Was villain a massive station?

never need to slowplay if you are consistant with your betting patterns anytime you raise...raise less pre and make a c bet...creative would be to check turn if called and come back to life on river...no matter how dry the board looks I usually throw a flop bet out
