KNOWLEDGE FROM DAROCK :Knowing when to raise with the nutts.

Guys we all have our own idea on how to play the nutts. But sometime we get so caught up in having them that we get away from the real way to play or raise the nutts. My point of view on this situation is if you have a fool or fish as we say in the poker world, who is trying to buy or push his weight around, let him do so. If he is trying to buy the pot, don't force him out. For example, if I would check the nutts to the big bully, if he has, lets say $800 in front of him, let him push in probably a sizable bet, lets say a $200 bet. Myself, I would let him think that I am thinking about raising, instead of pushing all in at the drop of a hat, I would take about a minute or so to ponder how much I can extract from this sitting duck. If I go all in, he is certain to fold. If I want to get him to think that I am trying to bluff at the pot, how much should I raise? Well after careful consideration, I decide to double the bet, raise $200, without hesitation, he says all in. At this point I just smile and say "CHECK MATE" or as we say in the poker world, I CALL. Now thats what I call the HOOK, LINE, AND SINKER. What I am trying to say is, let your nutts do the talking, don't go crazy with your betting just to be satisfied with what's in the pot. Extract as much as you can from your opponent especially if your opponent is a little fish in a big pond. Take it from DAROCK, I see these types of situations everyday. Peace and Love.......
