For all you kids out there - the dangers of slowplaying top set

[Tcchap]

Here is a hand that I played so badly it wasn't even funny. This is what happens when you get tired of betting your set and opponent folding on stars $10 nl tables. A great instructional example of someone (myself) using a slowplay in a poor situation. Even though all the villian has on the flop is a gutshot, Good argument against slowplaying here.
