    Default An amusing hand.. when slowplay goes bad

    Well this is high stakes, but its more amusing than anything else. Look what both villains held. First had two pair on the flop, second hit trips on the turn. Both just kept checking, hoping to check-raise. River gives me a straight which gets em both

    Classic Brunson.. raise PF and they always check to you. Do you typically make continuation bets?

    I dont make continuation bets if I think my opps have something. In this case I was pretty sure they did.

    Not betting that turn with trips is the most criminal act of bad poker i have ever witnessed (apart from when someone went all in infront of my quad kings heads up) but still....

    trying not to die
    Not betting the 2 pair is a bad idea, but how bad depends on how sure he is there will be a bet on the flop.

    Not betting the trips on the turn vs a board filled with draws however, is a joke.
