if you say these guys are "nitty," how can they call a push? they wont. they will, however, call a half pot bet. thats how you maximize your value. not by always trying to hit a home run.

if the nits have a Q, will they call off a possibility of KQ that would play the hand EXACTLY as we played it here? or would they risk $100 on a split pot..with casino rakes? doubt it...if they are nits.

the question was how to get maximum VALUE not how do i get a stack.
