Possibly a turn bet of 200, if someone had an ace they will play back, if they all have rags then there is not much you can do on this board. Good river bet

luckily you are not losing much money by not extracting maximum value from quads [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

i dont mean to be harsh but this hand was played badly.

fold pf.

either on the flop, or at latest on the turn, bet. you dont have a lot of money you need to put in, if someone hit the ace or even a piece of the flop theyll double you up or call a small bet, so just try to get money in the pot. you will usually not get action on quads, its an unfortunate fact of poker. when you do, its because someone was willing to stack off in response to many lines you could take in many situations, so just hope they hit, and generally you cant go wrong with betting on cards that could have hit villains ranges when the money is short.


also, with your stack, just to stress how bad limping PF is (i want to make sure you dont do it again [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]), shoving would be better, and is still not good.

hehe, I was expecting that. Actully only reason I did that was because this was a NL SnG played like limit... ppl liked to call BB from any position, min-raise.

I probably would of fold to any action in front of me.

not a good reason not to fold PF

Re: PS11: Flop quads... how to extract value?!
 

fold PF, calling here is horrible

check flop
bet turn - either someone has an ace, or your not getting paid at all - when they have the ace you can get 2 streets worth of value out of your hand here so bet that [censored]

Re: PS11: Flop quads... how to extract value?!
 

I'm with the fold preflop crowd.
Anyone else interested in a minbet on the flop? Anyone who is going to put any money in on later streets is going to call it.

Re: PS11: Flop quads... how to extract value?!
 

I'm betting the flop every time. I'm trying to build the pot here when someone does have a piece of it, and make them pay to see those draws that aren't any good. I think a min bet on the flop might actually be ok.

Re: PS11: Flop quads... how to extract value?!
 

Yeah, bet the flop. If everyone folds you weren't going to get any more value out of this hand anyway.
