    hehe not just you at all!

    Tons of posts. I think people are just slow playing too much in general, I suppose worried about losing value and people folding.

    If you are so worried about people folding too much to your raises with monsters, then the clear adjustment should be to bluff raise more as opposed to slow playing more.

    (note: I'm not advocating bluff raising donks, I'm just saying in general!)

    The conclusion I made out of my 'KK hit set in 4bet pot' post was exactly this. I am guilty of this thinking.
    For some reason I forgot that valuebetting is the nr 1 thing in this game.
    Forgetting that results in FPS with made/monster hands, like me.

    So even when it's a bit of a shamefull hand and it deserved the comments it got, I am glad I posted it, because it opened my eyes.

    if everyone's folding to you try and make a successful bluff if it works show it and rub it in a little,then when you do get monster you're more apt to get called
