Pushing the 'nuts' in small pots
I don't bother value betting boats or quads or nut flushes or straights on the river (regardless of pot size) when I know the other person has a lower flush, straight or boat because 99% of the opponents cannot fold those hands even when they expect they are beat. So why not maximize my profits right?
The reason I played so passively pre and post flop was because I was ready to log off.
