If you’re playing heads-up against a woman and wish to run deep with your nuts with slow play, then it depends on how much time you both have got left in your respective timebanks! Provided she is ready for showdown! 🤪😂

Modern poker is very deep, almost like chess with incomplete information. I always aim to extract maximum EV; I don’t follow fixed rules.
My decision depends on the context, not on ‘I have the nuts → I bet’ or ‘I have the nuts → I slowplay.’
Underestimating someone = losing money.

"I was in position, got it all in but they still managed to backdoor me."

"You rivered a boat?"

"Under that much pressure I just folded"

"Big hands but I still managed to out flop them"

"I just had to slow down and wait for the bubble to burst"

Some of these questions really do sound wild out of context.
The funniest one for me is when someone asks:
“How deep did you get?” — and I have to remind myself we’re still talking about poker, not a Saturday night story. 😄

Or when I say:
“I had to fold even though I was in position with a strong hand — the pressure was too much.”
That one always gets strange looks from non-players.

Poker conversations would definitely confuse anyone outside this world.

Did you beat the donkey?

The dealer said on your backs, so I tabled my big pair.

Did you accidentally put your hand in the muck?

You needed a club to beat his cowboys?

So after taking the pot did you tip your dealer?

She was so sticky, the only answer was to get it all in.

Why do we never get any action with our pocket rockets?

“Deepest I have gone is final tables, not places HR needs to know about. With the nuts I usually apply pressure, slow play only when the table dynamic calls for it. And I play the same way against everyone, I respect the chips, not who is holding them
