Ugly Ed
2nd time today I made Quads. 1st time didnt win nothing but the blinds. 2nd time worked out better. What do you think is the best amount to raise the River here? What I did doesnt really matter. I want to know what most people would do. Or what would be most of the time the best raise amount to get the max value? Was the raise I made fine? Or do you think I got lucky?

What do you think about my plays on the Flop and Turn? Do you think in most cases my reraises would have gotten folded to? Although opponent did call. I am not sure if it would have maybe been better to just call. I wanted to get $ in the pot at the same time I didnt want him to fold. What do you think? How do you usually handle this situation?

BTW Opponent had K7o. We both had deep stacks.

Yea I pushed all in. I was a little worried he may not have had a K maybe a smaller PP. And since we both had pretty deep stacks. I thought he may not call off his whole stack. He did though.

I wouldnt Fold this PF though since I knew I was going to get Quads. Actually I'll limp alot of hands if its just 1BB to see the Flop. I will easily Fold the Flop to a raise if I dont get atleast 2 pair, or an open ended str8, or a K high Flush draw. And get the right price to draw. At the tables I play you can limp alot of hands. Ive won alot of pots limping hands like 3,50 and Flopping a Str8. They usually pay good cause no one is expecting you to have 3,5. Hands like this one is a good example. Alot of people would Fold this PF. Since the table let me I just Limped it in and won a nice pot. This win here will pay for alot of hands that I Limp/Fold on.

You just have to be willing to let go alot of TP bad kicker hands. I'll easily let of A9o to a raise on an A,6,T board. Dont even try to play them after a Flop if its been raised. I think if you do this its ok to limp alot of hands PF.
