A Great Feeling

I'm gonna rehash this question from TripJax survey a month ago.

12. What satisfies you more, your aces holding up for a big pot or a bluff working for a big pot?

There really should be a 3rd option to this. While Aces holding up is nice, you don't have too much control over that. And with bluffing, if you show them, it feels really good, but if you don't show many hands, people won't know they've been bluffed.

To me, the best feeling is when they fall into your well set trap (ie Quad Control). It's a great feeling when they push all-in and all you have to do is smile and flip over your cards. Sets are great for that too. Though I had sets cracked twice last night. Both time getting all the money in on the turn with my sets good. Once vs two pair Aces and Fives... 3rd ace came on the river. 2nd time vs AdKd, flop was Qd-Jd-x, turn was a blank. River was a diamond. While that does suck, the feeling of being able to flip over your monster or semi-monster, knowing it's best feels fantastic.
