Hmmm, I should slowplay anyway right? Call another big bet. River....K. Wow, now I'm just pretty amazed at that, I have to fold to his bet. However someone else actually called him down with A9....but it was SUITED so I can't blame him (hehe). Obviously he lost to the 4 K's, and no one believed me when I told them I folded quad 10's...they just laughed. I took a screen shot so I'll definitely post it sometime.
I don't believe you either. You folded to 1 card in the deck. pretty hard to believe...

It might help if you would somehow organize your better posts so you could either post a link or cut and paste - that way you can contribute meaningfully to the discussion without having to type type type. AG is especially good at that sort of thing. He must have a file cabinet in his brain or something. Topics get revisited and reviewed. It would be an interesting project for somebody to make a compendium of the best CardsChat posts on contentious subjects - maybe even put them together in a book.

KUDOS to Likminutz for folding quad tens. That's some real discipline, man. Don't you think you could have pushed a street or two earlier?

AG posted one time about all the conditions that need to be met to justify a slowplay. But if you can't slowplay quads, when can you? I mean, come on now.

I've had 4 of a kind Jacks before, board was something like J937J. Not only did I have 4 of a kind, but I had the best 4 of a kind on the board, but the other guy had a straight flush 7 to Jack.
