    Default Skeleton in mike4066's closet

    Was just reading some old Gauntlet histories, trying to figure out where I used to go right, and lookee here: one of our gurus slowplaying aces...

    Now, admittedly with only 4 people at the table and HU on the flop it's understandable, but I dunno...

    Man. I've checked aces pre-flop before, but continuing the slowplay past the flop = bad idea.

    OK I'll pipe in here

    Lefou was playing like a maniac
    We're HU and I have position and have him out chipped.

    Give them the rope, let them hang themselves.
