Posted by BeMyATMplz: Sorry but your preflop play makes me puke irl
DO NOT, I REPEAT!!! DO NOT WATCH MY VIDEO....
Heh, if you have already i appreciate that you as of yet havent posted me a slap in the nuts lol.
But i would like to know why you say that BeMy? Id guess its because he just flats both bets when i may have raised the 90 cent bet myself considering the stakes and his roll. I am likely way off here though. To me its fortunate the guy had 55 and even more so with that flop considering how much he bet. Maybe i could justify the flat call looking to spike the 7 because with such a strong bet and his stack if i hit he will pay me off with AA or KK.
Really im just thinking out loud and im sorry if it sounds stupid. I do want to know what the right play is there.
Even still im happy for you to take such a big pot.

Nice, but slowplay is verry dangerous. I´ve got a lot of sucks in the past, when i give the opponent a freecard. Value bets are even the better way to build a nice pot. And when the opponent hit at the river, you can get a better pot.

I agree with that except, when you flop quads, its not dangerous, because youve flopped quads lol. so the opponent would have needed 2 have had pocket 8's or better and hit a runner runner for quads.

though it kinda depends on opponents etc but not a good idea calling 3bets with mid pairs OOP i think BB was likely attempting a squeeze, but little did he know u werent going to fold.
it puts you in a tricky spot to defend, especially when u hav made evident you have a mediocre hand. unless u hit 7 on flop, u'll have to fold to cbet. and even when u hit u wont win enough unless it's a setup like this one.
