Default Re: Check river?

And you'll occasionally have a boat beat by a straight flush.

But the number of times you make money by lower boats will cover the money you lose to quads 10x over. Not to mention, you will also stack people with boats when you have quads.

You can't worry about it. (I would say that there may be a case out there where you could slow down... You and your opponent are both very deep stacked. you're playing against a supertight and good player who could only be playing the way he is playing if he had quads....

lets say you raised PF with AAxx and the board comes A99. You bet he raises, you call. On the turn, you bet and he raises you again... you know he's good and knows that you are very likely to have a set of aces because of your PF play and your play on the flop on... Maybe in that case you might worry about quads. But 99% of the time against 99.5% of the players, you should be happy to get it all in here.
