20/40 flopping quads vs overpairs, extracting max value
semi-aggressive and semi-loose 7 handed 20/40 live game. i have a tight, solid, winning image. i have the big stack at the table. i am quiet and calm and my reads have been very strong throughout the session.
i am UTG with 88 and raise. a young hoodie (don't know much about his play) 3bets me, and another unknown player caps it. it's folded back to me, and i am almost certain at least one of them has an overpair to my eights, possibly both of them. although the table is aggressive, there isn't much capping preflop, but lots of 3betting. i seriously considered folding, but finally called because i knew i could make a huge pot if i flopped a set. plus i was getting 5:1. i called planning to dump my hand if i didn't improve. the flop comes 882. how would you proceed?

Bet and call flop and c/r turn. I think that you can't risk trying to c/r this flop since therer is a chance it could go check/bet/raise and you check 3-bet which will slow down even some of the most aggro palyers with an overpair on a paired board.

Depends on the flop action, but my plan would be bet/call, bet/3-bet. [/ QUOTE ] Every time I try to do this live they freeze to my turn bet.

Re: 20/40 flopping quads vs overpairs, extracting max value
the only people i have a spewey image to are other 2+2ers. the other players just think i am a nut peddler. in fact, someone made a comment about it last night. "jeez man, you only play the nuts?" think about it from their perspective.

Re: 20/40 flopping quads vs overpairs, extracting max value
Off the top of my head I can remember two sessions where you sprayed Ace high against Bobby G and that annoying kid Mike with long hair. Both times I was at the other end of the table and there was muttering that you're nuts. People will remember the 1 hand in 500 that you seem to play maniacally, not the other 400 you folded preflop. Trust me on this.

I'd play this like an overplayed TT-JJ and probably bet-3-bet, then likely c/r the turn.

Re: 20/40 flopping quads vs overpairs, extracting max value
Well if the other guys are aggro enough to 3 bet an overpair and never fold it, my favorite way of playing it would be c/r, call a 3 bet on the flop then c/r the turn. Granted it may be easier to pull off on a unpaired board if you flop a set, but it still would work enough in this case too.
