Hey all,

Before I begin, I also posted this in the beginners forum, but thought it was also relevant to these stakes...

I am looking to start being able to deduce what certain standard betting patterns mean. I would like to be able to start telling whether a particular betting line is strong, weak, or mediocre.

I feel like if I have a better knowledge of what certain betting patterns or lines represent (than I currently do), then I will have a better time putting players on hands, and for myself, disguising my holdings (or merely being able to get the most value out of a hand).

example: if the "standard" flopped set line is bet, bet, bet (I realise it probably isn't), if I throw in a check on the turn, what could I be representing.

I'm also aware that board texture plays a big part so for now, assume a relatively dry board, against relatively standard players.

All replies and help most welcome!

Ps I attempted to search for info on this, but was unsucessful. If anyone has some good links please share.

Thanks guys!
