Default Re: Continuation bet and turn )

The age old "is he floating me" question. I've never really seen a good answer on this one, even though I'm sure that a lot of people run into this situation.

Normally, I'll fold in these situations, but I'm kind of a nit. So I'm not much help here. One thing you might try if you are OOP is to CR-AI on the turn. The few times I've tried it, the donk folds and doesn't bother trying to float me again. This is a risky move, though. You also have to be careful of the "flush bunnies." They may be calling you just because they have four to a flush, so I wouldn't recommend this move when there is three to a flush on the board at the turn.

You can also use their aggression to your advantage. If you actually hit the turn (or flop for that matter), just C/R OOP or 1/2PSB if IP (they usually see this as a sign of weakness and move in). Just remember to mix up your play by doing this some of the times when you hit and some of the times you miss.

HTH and I look forward to seeing other peoples' responses on this.
