I discussed slow playing earlier and said, for many situations you probably don’t want to use it. There is a pretty good alternative to actual slow playing online that works effectively against many players. That is the “literal” slow play. Say I am a preflop raiser with AJs in late position with 3 other limpers. The flop comes and I flop trip Aces.
