How Not to Play Quads.

[MTPaid]

This may be one of the weakest plays I've ever seen. At least I didn't get charged heavily to go the whole way.

How do you check the river?

Well, I had to ask him.

His answer......
"I thought you would fold to a bet"

True I'm folding because I don't have a club, but with a pot that big isn't anyone with any kind of club calling?

[Xaston]

If I have a club I'm probably betting, and calling his check raise.

[MTPaid]

Just went back and checked his aggression numbers and he had a 0.96 AF after the flop.

Xaston that is my point exactly. He's getting called on that river by anyone who has a club (even though nobody did in this hand) so his excuse for not betting the river is strange.

[NWCougar]

Gotta bet the river with quads there and c/r the turn.
