Default Re: Analysis

Hi amoeba:

You're absolutely correct. If Player B who holds the jacks auto bets the flop, that gives Player A certain playing advantages. On the other hand, if he were to only rarely bet the flop, that would give Player A other advantages, namely the chance to win by catching an ace or queen on the turn (or river).

I believe that most players think about not giving a free card, thus the "continuation bet" will almost always be there. If that's not the case, as I mention replying to your other post, then my analysis does not do a good job of representing reality.

Best wishes,
Mason
