    This is a reiteration of Fnord's thread above. More specifically, stop slowplaying your sets in low buyin NLHE.

    If I had slowplayed either hand, I would have in a sense lost money because of how much I extracted off of this fish. Also, as soon as he figured out I was slowplaying, he'd stop betting and then fold to my raises.

    Last, this highlights the importance of finding good tables and having position on your opponents.

    Nice to hit a set 3 times in 25 minutes against the same 'genius'. Guess you didn't leave any money behind on these
