  Poker Sandbagging - Sand bagging tips
Sandbagging, a common phrase used in golf for someone trying to gain unwarranted strokes, is a term used for slow and deceptive poker plays.
Sandbagging is the phrase used for betting weakly when a player has a strong holding.
Though a risky play, sandbagging is considered to be a profitable strategy if your hand is so good, you don't need protection, or if an opponent is likely to bet when they think you have a weaker hand, or if opponents tend to fold quickly when you raise or call.

Poker is a card game, the most popular of a class of games called vying games, in which players with fully or partially concealed cards make wagers into a central pot, which is awarded to the player or players with the best combination of cards or to the player who makes an uncalled bet.
Poker is played in a multitude of variations, but most follow the same basic pattern of play.
Poker’s popularity experienced an unprecedented spike in the first years of the 21st century, largely because of the introduction of online poker and the invention of the hole-card camera, which turned the game into a spectator sport.

Sandbagging (also called "slow play") is deceptive play in poker that is roughly the opposite of bluffing: betting weakly with a strong holding rather than betting strongly with a weak one.
Here's an example from a four-handed draw poker game among Alice, Bob, Carol, and David: After anteing, Alice looks at her hand to find a pair of aces, and opens the betting for $2.
Even in games (such as California lowball[?]) where the check-raise is not allowed, one can make other sandbagging plays such as just calling ("flat calling") instead of raising with a very strong hand and then later raising.

 Sandbag Training
Sandbags are burlap bags filled with sand or soil, in an amount that a person can carry from where it is filled, to where it will be used.
Sandbags used in fortification generally have dimensions carefully calculated so that the finished bags can be interlocked like brickwork, and are of such a weight as to maximise the efficiency of manual labour in filling and laying them.
Plain burlap sandbags deteriorate fairly quickly, so if it is anticipated that a sandbag structure will remain in place for a long time, it may be painted with a portland cement slurry to reduce the effects of rot and abrasion.

 Poker Strategy: Sandbagging
Sandbagging is more or less the opposite of the bluff.

 Slow play (poker) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Slow playing (also called sandbagging or trapping) is deceptive play in poker that is roughly the opposite of bluffing: betting weakly or passively with a strong holding rather than betting aggressively with a weak one.
The objective of the passive slow play is to lure opponents into a pot who might fold to a raise, or to cause them to bet more strongly than they would if the player had played aggressively (bet or raised).
Even in games (such as California lowball) where the check-raise is not allowed, one can make other sandbagging plays such as just flat calling instead of raising with a very strong hand and then later raising.

 Poker Psychology   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-23)
Poker psychology boils down to your ability to watch how others play, and use that experience to judge how your opponents may be playing in the current hand.
The simplest layer of poker psychology is to watch what your opponents visibly do based on their own cards.
In fact, it is during these games that poker psychology is most readily learned, because in draw games you never know what the player discarded.

 Protection   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-23)
This is generally done with a made hand that you perceive as vulnerable to an opponent's drawing hand.
This differs from a bluff in that the latter can win only when the opponent folds, while a bet for protection is made with a hand that is likely to win a showdown, but is not strong enough for sandbagging.
The term protection is also often heard in the context of an all-in player (see poker table stakes rules), because a bet by any player serves to protect the hand of an all-in player just as it protects the bettor (and possibly more so).

For those not in the know, sandbagging is the act of initially passing on opening the betting round ("check" or "no bet"), forcing somebody else to have to open the betting round, and then raising on it when it gets back to you.
The discussion on sandbagging has always been "it's an unethical thing to do at a home game between friends" vs. "it's a strategic part of game play and should be allowed".
Barry gave the answer, and Asha34 brought up her story of a home game table, where the house announced that sandbagging was banned from their table.
