Holding the nuts

No, this does not refer to what happens when a guy is dateless on a Saturday night. Nor does it refer to squirrel food. Instead, when you are holding the nuts, it means you have an unbeatable hand in poker. Lucky you!
Peddle the nuts
When you finally get a monster hand that cant be beaten, you want to sell it to your opponents known as peddling the nuts. You dont want everyone to simply fold, but rather you want them to bet against you (or even raise you) so that you get maximum value from the hand.
Normally this is done through slow playing acting weak when in fact you are strong. However, when facing very aggressive players it can actually be more profitable to bet as they will raise or even re-raise you.
Godzilla
The nuts come around so rarely that, if you dont take full advantage of them, you will be losing out on a lot of potential profit. Make sure that when you hit a monster hand, use it like Godzilla and cause destruction to your opponents chip stacks. |
