slowplay?

Hi dear members,

What did u think about slowplaying a big cards?
that sure is a good way to take a big pot but u have to be really carefull and u have to be a easy folder if u feel someone have better.

i know a lot of players use that strategie but is it a good way to be a good poker players?

best of luck for the next freeoll tourney.

Slow playing can be very dangerous, the only time I would attempt it is if the table is pretty aggro and I know someone will do the betting for me.

totally agree. it usually bites me in the ass unless the player tips me off by bet schemes

Well, i know many ppl curse slow play, but i personally LOVE IT!! . . xD . . . , and will do it always that i feel theres no danger, but yes, u must know when its time to lay hat and fold to a possible better hand then yours. i think i just like slow play that much cause its part of my very own personality the repulsion for being predictable.....my advice would be: take care in slow playing though.....;)

yup slowplaying is very dangerous. i hate slowplaying and then I end paying off someone.. :/

I'm not used to brake if you have large pages and odatolom ready or .

Its good strategy to play slow of big hands when ur image on the table is too aggresive then ppl ll not believe u having big hand...

I only slowplay, if I am in position. The person does not have any draws on me. I know I can get more money out of him, by just calling and he is very aggressive and will bet into me.

i always play slowplay,it's my favorite tactic..only in special conditions i force :d

The question you have to ask yourself when slow playing big hands is, are you getting the potential value out of your hand. If you are, then by all means, keep doing what your doing. If your not, you might want to consider a different approach.

I'll slow play depending on position, the other players, and earlier in a tournament.

lilg slowplays his sexuality woooooooooooooooof

I will slow play early in a tourney only, and i will fold good hands later sometimes no matter what. JustSayn.........

Sometimes it's good to slowplay. I've saved money by slowplaying Kings before. But you're right, you must be carefull when slowplaying.

I think it depends on the table you're at and how those people are playing.

Slow playing is only good for the rare occasion. So many factors need to be right for it to be a profitable play. If conditions are not right you'll either be giving up value or letting someone catch up.

I love it and are able to brush it off and wait for the next opportunity when it didn't go my way.

+1 I was going to respond to this thread, but I think this response is right on. Slowplaying should be in your arsenal but most of the time it is not correct to slowplay

if you are in a early position you can slow play it ..maiby some1 try a bluff.. in late position never play it slow..

Slowplaying after flop is my most frequent mistake :) I used to play check-call till the showdown, when enemy bets. But I got too many beat with straigh draw of flush draw on river when I had AA or KK.. Now I raise or check-raise flop, on turn I am all in many times if the flop+turn isnt really scary :)

If you slow play, you can't get upset when smaller cards catchup and beat your cards that were better.

The slow play should be used as a secondary strategy, a good hand that you know your opponents vain bet that if you pass, like you do a flush came over and the ladies, then the opponent is likely to have a pair or even two pair . Good Luck!

Slowplay is simply another tool in the arsenal of a poker player. And like other tools it has to be used accordingly and with caution.

Right. You almost always loose value with a SP.

Only time it's worth it is if villain is super agro. But even then, a turn and river raise should never be avoided.
