I love your jam on the river. Great spot to get paid by another full house or even by loose flush. Chance of quads is low and even if you bet smaller quads is jamming and you are calling. So if he has quads you are losing your chips 100% of the time. But if he doesn’t And you bet less you are sub optimizing a lot more often. Jam is right and I stand by it!

Hero plays 88 very similar, no?

I'm not sure I would have raised to $60 UTG with 88.

Or did you mean Villain would have played 88 very similar? If that's what you meant, then yes, he very well might have. But it doesn't matter what the river action is, we're getting it all in if I have queens full and he has quad 8s.

No, I meant hero... 3xstraddle OTB with a middle pair? Have you no imagination?

Um, oh yeah, UTG. Nevermind.
