Ok, this might be a bit anal but can I get the correct poker terminology on the word "leading."

I have always thought "leading" means you're leading into a pre-flop raiser or whoever was the aggressor in the previous street. When you were the only pre-flop raiser and everyone called, you're not "leading" into the field, you're betting correct?

if u raise preflop from utg and get a few callers behind, when u bet the flop you're leading.

when someone else raises preflop and u call OOP, then bet the flop you are donk betting.

yeah - u r right. i mean im sure some poker nerds will chime in w some literal bs, but there is some connotation of breaking tempo w the word "lead" among people who have played a lot. so you are actually corrrect.

[soah]

Leading is betting into people that haven't acted yet (more succinctly, betting when first to act). If the pfr is last to act, and several players check, then someone could donkbet here, but it would not be a lead... the term generally isn't used to refer to players who had the initiative already, which I assume is for clarity.

or at least that's the way I've always understood it
