    Default Is this the best line to get it all in with 4 of a kind?

    My question is once you know villian probably has top boat is it better to push looking for a call or bet smaller to ensure he calls? Amazing how people risk their entire stack when they have only put 50 cents in the pot.

    You'd like to get more money in on the turn so don't minraise. I would also lead the turn instead of check. Push on river is fine. Either he has a Jack and is calling or has nothing and was peeling with Ace high and is folding. Against people who don't suck you need to get more money in on earlier streets because they ain't calling their stack off to chop a pot.

    The hand is screwed up, it shows you in the BB PF but every stree has you acting first. If you're acting first, did you really complete 73o ?

    I think you played it nice. If you bet the flop, weaktighties fold.
    The river push probable meant "split pot" to him

    I like everything except for the min raise on the turn. The push gets called by all J's and slowplayed overpairs. NH

    I like using the miniraise to make people think I am a weak player. I later asked the guy why he would commit all of his chips to win a $1 pot and he said too many people bluff on here. LOL
