Default Re: The ol\' hidden high denomination chip trick

This is why, when facing an all-in bet, I always ask the dealer to count it, regardless of whether or not I already know my decision. If I don't plan to call it at least gives the impression that I had a decision. If I am insta-calling, it ensures I know exactly how much I am calling and foils the hidden big chip trick.

Well, if I have the stone cold nuts on the river, I won't be a douche because at that point I don't care what the bet size is.
