You'd have called anyways!

The best part is there were already two limpers, so it's not like he was risking taking only the blinds.

God sheds a tear when you don't checkraise that river. In his absence, I will shed one for him. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

After he called the 3bet on the turn I didn't think he'd bet the river if I checked. He's a massive calling station.

But the next time I turn quads I'll give it a try and let you know. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

Wow, I would've gotten a lot more money in with Aces on an 888xx board.

Do slowplay the nut straight when you're an overly aggressive moran:

I love when someone slowplays aces and I have 94o in the BB and the flop is 942, river 2. No justice ever.
