Default Re: Help me to slowplay

I'm not a fan of slow playing most any situations unless it looks out of character

Won't doing something out of character make your opponent more suspicious? Thus allowing you to extract less value?

I mean out of character for the flop here. "I've seen my opponent bet his strong hand and check his misses all night" and then you check. It's out of character for you, but he might make a stab with underpairs, Ace high, etc hoping you were on PP and got scared. Tank-calling and hoping a paint that he has a part of comes can stack them. You can do this about once every 100 hands at a table if they're paying attention, but the bright side is that for a few rounds your checks get more respect and people might play less aggressively into you (fun STT strategy actually..lets you draw out in low M situations).
