Chip extraction

I was in early position and I raised with pocket 9s. The flop came out with 2 more 9s. I thought it would look fishy if I just checked the flop. So, I figured the best way to make some money was to make a small bet on the flop. I bet about half the pot. I only got one caller. On the turn, it was a small card so I decided I’d make it look like I was betting a hand like A/K on the flop and decided to check on the turn hoping he’d either catch some sort of card on the river or at least bluff at it… The river was a Queen. He bet out, I raised, he pushed all-in, I called instantly. He hit the queen on the river just like I had hoped.

Flopping the dead nuts is fun!
