Baiting a straight

Last night, I won a huge pot when I baited a straight. When you have a big hand, it really pays to slow play it. I'd been dealt a pair of fours, and made a set on the flop. I didn't bet the flop or the turn, just calling. The river card was an ace which paired another ace on the board to give me a full house, fours full of aces. At that point the pot was at $6,000 and I bet the pot (shades of my pot limit days). An opponent who'd flopped a straight and had been slow playing himself raised me to $20,000. I went all in, and he called. I won a pot worth $83,200 and my opponent hit the felt.

I made another odd crossing, and am now in striking distance of $3,000,000.
