Default Re: continuation bets losing money, how do I adjust?

One good tip is to bet the turn from time to time, especially with position. If you continuation bet like 80% and then bet turn like 33% when called on flop, you'll actually do fairly decently.

So true. There's something in Ciaffone's book about the key to his success and he said it was "knowing when to fire the second barrel".

Of course a little of this goes a long way, don't turn into a bluffing machine.

Another tip is this: Be more likely to continuation bet in position after they being checked to than from OOP.

I also agree with betting 2/3 to 3/4 of the pot. Rarely are they folding for a pot bet when they would call 2/3.
