Default Re: Flop blind defense spot

cring flop here is generally a pretty poor play

positives:
villain can have a worse hand that he doesn't rebluff and won't put much money in with if u cc. if he has qj cring is mildly better

villain is more likely to fold a better hand on turn/river. a huge positive when it happens but u basically need a 1) a thinking villain who is 2) holding what is a relatively small part of his range and 3) the board needs to come bad for him

negatives:
villain can have a better hand hes not folding in which case cring is terrible

villain can have a worse hand and rebluff in which case cring is terrible

in genearl, a9o is about the last hand u want to reopening the betting with
