    I would just check this back. Literally no card can EVER come to prevent us winning. We're a 100% lock on the hand, let him catch up/bluff. 

    Also dont show on table

    10p into a pot of 1.10 looks so weak, i'm hoping for a reraise.

    Gotta show the nuts, it'll prob beanother year till i get a hand tht good lol

    Nevermind that you showing you called with Q9 who cares. You're showing everyone that when you flop an absolute monster you'll make a silly 10p bet into £1.10.

    You'd never bet 10p here if you had AQ (no diamond). So now in future when you do a stupid tiny bet, people will assume it's with the nuts (if anyone is paying attention).

    FWIW I think you should bet bigger. He's still Iso'd from the SB to 5x pre and should have a pretty strong range. If he's gonna call, he'll call 10p or he'll call 50-60p.

    Meh i explained my point wrong. Im just from the school where showing this kind of hand is incorrect. I guess theres an arguement for it. Although yeah probably doesnt matter at NL10.

    I would love if you fold 2 me when i put in a min bet, when you have raised preflop:D Cause i'm pretty sure it will be a monster that i'll have that time:P

    I agree i should have checked it.

    Tho, i loved the idea behind the 10p bet, to induce a reraise. This was player specific, it's the only time this player folded to a stupidly weak bet, after he has raised preflop.

    Backfired this time, a check is better but overall I have no problem showing this, the fact i made this bet on this occasion at this time doesnt mean a lot in the grandscheme of things.

    If i flop the world the next time, will i min bet of course i will!
