Should I CB? A Quiz.
 

Assume full stacks at a NL50 table. Hero just sat down and has no reads. Do you CB in these spots?

If you don't CB a hand, why not?

Ok, 8 possibly not, I hate being OOP. And possibly not 5. I might want the free draw. If im in a good mood, theyre all being bet.

Re: Should I CB? A Quiz.
 

heads up and in position I'm betting all of them, although I wouldn't always call it a CB, Hand 4 for instance, with the flushdraw and 2 overs I'd not be unhappy at getting called! and really hoping for the 2 or 6 of hearts to come on turn!

AJ,

Nicley done. I'll definitely c-bet 4 of them. Definitely check two and the other two it depends on my mood.

I'll leave it to others to elaborate further [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

This isn't the case in all of them, which is what makes it tougher.

2) Yes
3) 50/50
4) Yes
5) No - too many villains, and I can take a free card
6) Yes
7) 50/50
8) Yes

Re: Should I CB? A Quiz.
 

Lets see if I can still play a little. Old man, please scould me, I can always use the help:

H1: Yes
H2: Yes
H3: yes
H4: yes
H5: Without reads I think no, but if I thought I might get to the river for free then yes.
H6: No, horrible board, youre splitting here if you do hit your straight
H7: No, but if it was HU then I would
H8:I lean towards no. 3 clean outs to your str8, draw heavy board and 2 callers. Could be messy on the turn.

*Disclaimer: I reserve the right to rethink this and change my answers [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
