Another very important element in a winning poker strategy is slowplaying. But checking, when you have a very strong hand like trips, you allow your opponents a chance to catch up, so that you can get more action from them on later streets. This hand is from the same 7,5$ "Deep Stack" MTT on pokerstars and two of the value bluffing hands in my previous post. Watch and learn :)

It's true, you were already knocked down with that set of Kings in the Turn, the villain had to bet on courage and protection, instead he let you hit full house by giving you a free card that destroyed him and, incidentally, he ate a 3bet on the River with all his chips.

My questions are:
1. Will you fold if villain shove all in on the flop? Coz considering your stack size vs V. You might tank it?
2. KQ is not that good, it depends but most of the time I wont considering betting big or shoving it preflop or flop.
3. He thought small betting it will get more chips. So we will go back to question one, is it better to shove?
