I can bluff raise ATC here, right?

[Jouster777]

A 1.5BB poster and a SB completer is the green light for BB. No?
Edit: As an added bonus...I have been at the table 2 orbits and this is the first hand I've played. No reads on anyone else.

If you didn't raise a hand in the last 2 orbits or so this is fine, just don't do it to often.

Yeah I do this a decent bit. If youre table image is bad at the moment then this is spewy. If people are starting to think I'm FOS I'll just check.

Yeah i think this is fine if there has been a history of just completing SB on you. As said table image is a big part of the deciding factor, if you've been fairly active lately just check it.

I've been working a lot on this today after paying attention to a few NL 25 and 50 vids on cardrunners. It's just a case of asserting authority every once in a while, training them to fold SB in the future more than complete.

anyone posts on my tables I raise ATC like it's my job.

*unless* I've been very active - or been caught bluffing in the past 20 hands or so.

lead any flop for ~pot shutdown if called unless I have a hand I wanna play.

I like that plan. I really like the concept of "training SB to fold rather than complete" in a more general sense. I'm gonna try to work on that too.
