Comments on Quad hand.

[Misty]

I really like how I played this hand. Would anyone play it differently?

And HOW WOULD YOU PLAY IT IF YOU WERE THE VILLIAN IN THIS HAND?

As villian, woudnt be in hand with A6. In retrospect, Im maybe see one card to see open ended draw, but even then, dont like. Calling 1000 on a draw is just nutty.

in your position, id be worried about 46 69 from sb position. also worried abuot someon limping in with 78 suited. Without knowing the players, he could have called flop raise with 67 suited or overs. on turn, im still worried about a flopped straight, but still unlikely. Im not crazy about 1000 bet. Still worried about the straight or made boat here with 78. since they just called, i have no idea what they holding here. dont make sense. Im river, if he wiling to call 1600 so far, Im, thinking he wont wont to let it go so easily
im betting a little more then 400 on river....maybe 6-800 and if i have a read he really has something,,,im pushing

Sorry I should have typed "on the river" ....let me rephrase>..


Given the weak river bet...

What would you have thought or how would you have played it if you were the villian in this hand?
