Default Re: Standard?

totally standard except the converter is messed up

I've been thinking about the post that ILP made about using more passive lines to extract the most value. I think that in spots where you don't have to worry about protection (heads up, multiway with ragged boards) it can be better to just call the flop.

you win the most from bluffs and weak hands that would give up if you put in flop action, and you you win an extra half bet from any worse hand that villain will call down with. you charge draws more when their equity is worse, and you reduce their implied odds by keeping them in the lead.

I think you still need to raise the flop a significant amount of the time to give your semibluff raises credibility though.

ps stop playing in my games

edit: and this definately isn't one of those spots because the board is draw heavy and it is multiway
