When my nut card hits and someone bets, my normal reaction is to raise pot hoping it's some kind of idiot. But in the moment, I realized that the bettor was not an idiot (from playing with him before) and so I decided just to call because I knew there was nothing else he could have but the nuts; and I wanted to try to get others to call with lesser holdings. If I raised, it would probably drive others out and increase the rake. By just calling, I managed to get the SB and me $.25 more!!!(before the rake)
Just thought I'd share because an interesting moment like this doesn't come up much in these limits.
