Absoloutley. One of my main problems with this hand is that if i had flopped the nuts (or anything vaguely close to it) I would have slowplayed. Thus any half-decent hand-reader should be calling fairly light?

This doesn't make much sense. If you think pushing the flop with the nuts looks bluffy, why do you slowplay when you have it?

[/ QUOTE ]

Pushing the flop only looks bluffy for the same underlying reason that we slowplay when we have it... because there aren't a lot of hands here that call a bet, there's no need to bet big to protect because nobody can suck out on AK at this point, etc.
