First one:
Party Poker 0.5/1 Hold'em (8 handed) converter

Preflop: Hero is UTG with 7, 7.
Hero calls, 5 folds, SB completes, BB checks.

Flop: (3 SB) 7, 9, 7 (3 players)
SB checks, BB checks, Hero checks.

Turn: (1.50 BB) 2 (3 players)
SB checks, BB checks, Hero bets, SB folds, BB folds.

Final Pot: 2.50 BB

Results in white below:
No showdown. Hero wins 2.50 BB.

Since I started with being clever and slowplay, maybe I should contiued to the river also? Don't know why I betted this on the turn.


2nd hand, couple of minutes later on another table.

Party Poker 0.5/1 Hold'em (10 handed) converter

Preflop: Hero is Button with A, A.
3 folds, MP1 calls, 1 fold, MP3 raises, 1 fold, Hero calls, 1 fold, BB calls, MP1 calls.

Flop: (8.50 SB) 5, A, A (4 players)
BB checks, MP1 checks, MP3 bets, Hero calls, BB folds, MP1 folds.

Turn: (5.25 BB) 9 (2 players)
MP3 bets, Hero calls.

River: (7.25 BB) Q (2 players)
MP3 bets, Hero raises, MP3 calls.

Final Pot: 11.25 BB

Results in white below:
MP3 has Kc Ks (two pair, aces and kings).
Hero has Ad Ah (four of a kind, aces).
Outcome: Hero wins 11.25 BB.


Yes I know I shoulda resaised the flop but having the first hand still fresh in my mind I wanted as many left as possible if I hit the set. Bad play...

3rd Hand, 5 min later on the same table as above.
Party Poker 0.5/1 Hold'em (9 handed) converter

Preflop: Hero is MP3 with K, K.
4 folds, Hero raises, CO calls, 3 folds.

Flop: (5.50 SB) K, 2, K (2 players)
Hero bets, CO raises, Hero calls.

Turn: (4.75 BB) 7 (2 players)
Hero checks, CO checks.

River: (4.75 BB) A (2 players)
Hero checks, CO checks.

Final Pot: 4.75 BB

Results in white below:
Hero has Kc Kh (four of a kind, kings).

Yeha he resaised, lets go for the CR... No no bet on the turn, ok lets take him on the river..no? Darn....

Ok I need ideas how to get more of these, I know it's not a big leak or something just anoying
CO has 9s 9c (two pair, kings and nines).
Outcome: Hero wins 4.75 BB.

Your approaches to all these were fine. Bad luck that no one else seemed to catch anything. That last guy might've figured out you were being tricky.

hand 1: bet the flop, they might not believe you have it.

hand 2: looks fine

hand 3: bet the river, check raising the river is stupid, you miss bets...

Yeah that what I think too after looking through them.. Just that you never get any practice with getting quads on the flop

Zoot is a pretty well known TAgg, extremely tight and manical post-flop.

Party Poker 3/6 Hold'em (9 handed) converter

Preflop: Fnord is SB with 2, 2. CO posts a blind of $3.
1 fold, UTG+1 (ZootSooted) raises, 1 fold, MP2 calls, 1 fold, CO (poster) calls, 1 fold, Fnord calls, BB calls.

Flop: (10 SB) 4, 2, 2 (5 players)
Fnord bets, BB folds, ZootSooted raises, MP2 folds, CO folds, Fnord 3-bets, ZootSooted caps, Fnord calls.

Turn: (9 BB) 5 (2 players)
Fnord bets, ZootSooted calls.

River: (11 BB) Q (2 players)
Fnord bets, ZootSooted calls.

Final Pot: 13 BB

Results in white below:
ZootSooted has 9h 9d (two pair, nines and twos).
Fnord has 2h 2s (four of a kind, twos).
Outcome: Fnord wins 13 BB.


Play your big hands fast unless you have a reason to do otherwise. Consider that however you play Quads, it will have very little impact on your win-rate. Although, these hands are fun to talk about.

Fnord, i woulda tried for a check-raise on that turn unless you know he will take the free card way too often.

can you name some conditions where slow playing would be correct with flopping quads.

no preflop action, just a limp or two. is probably where i would slow play.

The other problem with a turn c/r is that a thinking player might laydown.

this is 0.50/1 limit right? as in, "i can't win at these stupid low limits because nobody every folds and i get sucked out on the river"??

so the obvious answer to the question of "how do i get money out of these hands?" is clearly, "BET THEM."

and what is the deal with cold calling AA?? this is not 20/40. there is no reason to slowplay. cap the damn hand and get more money in that pot.

I got teh quads about 15 minutes ago. Other guy flopped a straight flush. It was not pretty.

Buuuuuut...This is probably the biggest "it depends" thing. If you think they're going to fold for one small bet, slow play and let them catch a pair or two. If they're calling stations, bet away.

Yeah usally the raise of AA is a nobrainer, but as I said in the post. I still had the quad 7's hand so fresh in my mind that I just cold called. Don't worry won't happen again. Decided to not be cute with quads anymore, just that three of them in such a short timeframe and not getting any extra out of the first one got me to do strange things with these hands.
