This is now the undisputed most asked question and boring now in poker!! All that was missed off is its the first hand in the world series of poker etc
Almost as boring as bad beat stories (unless there your own of course lol)

--- Quote ---Zeebo"s Theorem - Nobody ever folded a full house.
Reasoning: Nobody is good enough to fold a monster. Most players aren"t even good enough to fold a hand that looks like a monster but really isn"t.
Application: There are two basic applications to this theory. The first is that if you put your opponent on a full house and you can beat them, don"t be afraid to overbet/push the river. This is particularly true when there is three of a kind on the board. Players will call with an incredible range of full houses in that spot. It is true that some villain may fold 22 on a board with three aces. However, you have no way of knowing if they have 22 or TT so go ahead and felt them. You are losing value if you don"t. And sometimes they"ll call with 22 anyway.
The second thing to realize is to never try to bluff anyone off a full house. If you have 22 on a board with three Aces, don"t expect to be able to push 66 off his hand.
This theorem also generally applies to any monster over monster situation, from straight flush over quads/FH/nut flush down to set over set.
Reliability: This is the most reliable theorem. Nearly 100%. Somebody will post and argue that it is actually 100%.

If you are playing a good player who knows his onions,does laying down 2 aces/boat seem a possibility now? I know i"d find it extremely difficult against a poor player to even contemplate folding.
