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.

Also, when we actually have it, the opponent will have it even more rarely.
