Slow playing FullHouse worked this time

Playing $.50/$1.00 table at PokerStars. I limped in with A 3 in early position. Flop came up A 3 A for my boat!

I find when I get a big hand like this and try to slow play it I don't get much action. I called a $2 bet and just hoped that someone else had that 4th Ace. The BB bet big after the turn, so I knew I could get some action.

Anyways, glad that a hand worked out and I wanted to share - lately my big hands have not been paying much.

I'm not sure if I could have played this differently (I've only been at the table about 10 minutes, so no reads).
