Have you ever hit a royal flush? Not everyone has, but in a recent cash game in Las Vegas, Rampage hit the best hand in poker during a bomb pot. The popular poker vlogger even caught the huge pot on camera!
When you are in a position where your opponents are unlikely to have a super strong hand, it might be a good time to use a small bet size. This allows you to sneak out a little extra value from weak poker hands that would fold to a big bet. Simultaneously, you give some stronger hands and bluffs a chance to raise and re-open the action.
