Default Re: Questions

btw, what exactly is "goes to showdown alot"? 35%? 40%? 45%? 50% like me? [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

don't you think BB is 3betting pf with most pairs and highcards? if so, that decreases the likelihood he's going to "keep us honest" calling down with a pair. it also decreases the likelihood he has a big [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] to draw at.

the more i think about it, the more i think i hate not betting here. i said "instabet" in my initial response. my reasoning is that when continuation betting after seizing initiave as the preflop raiser, besides paired flops, monotone flops offer excellent fold equity in shorthanded situations. most of the time opponents don't hold a card of that suit to draw to, and if they do they don't hold a very high one. also, you might get a pp or straight draw to incorrectly fold because they fear they are drawing thin/dead. with UI overs this is a coup.
