BBJ strategery/etiquette
I imagine this has been covered, but I've tried the search and reviewed the FAQ and can't find anything.
In two weeks I will be playing at a casino with a BBJ for the first time (Seneca Niagara). I hope that I wind up needing this info. Basically, what is the strategy/etiquette for when you feel that you may have a BBJ situation while the hand is playing out? I know not to discuss it, and from what I've read I don't even want to try to be "clever" and risk disqualifying it. Basically, I'm saying you've got TT and there's been action and we have a board of TTKK by the turn. My presumption is to play that the same way you would if there weren't a BBJ - raise, raise, raise. If he has KK, he's repopping you. If he has a single K, he's probably not folding his boat. And from what I understand of Seneca's rules, both hole cards must be used for a hand to be a bad beat, so I wouldn't think you'd want to give a hand like K7 a free card (course, if your opponent hits the one outer you may have other issues, and it's not like he's folding his boat). Yeah, I know there's only a sliiiiimmmmm chance I will need this info, but I don't want to be a) the ahole who "played the BBJ wrong" or b) the ahole who doesn't get value for his quads. |

Re: BBJ strategery/etiquette
It seems like you already know the answer. Dont ever play a hand different for the sake of the bad beat jackpot, if it happens, it happens. I have played 1000s of hours of poker and never been at a table with a BBJ, maybe I just run bad when it comes to BBJs but I wouldnt ever change my style when playing in a room with one.
