Default Re: ToP application (raising out players)

Warning: I may be wrong. It's likely in fact, heh.

I read most of OP except the examples but this is a good move to make against a table that will not call 2 bets cold. If you have relative position against PFR'er in a multiway pot and hit some part of the board, it can be correct to donk and hope he raises even if you are behind his range to drive out the field. Or, raise their c-bet with like bottom pair and an overcard. Especially if they aren't likely to 3bet the flop. In large pots obv. Sometimes these plays are even for value. Two overcards with backdoor draws, too. You don't really want to make these moves without being able to improve, I don't do it with low pp's.

Just avoid it when the table will call 2 bets cold with whatever. In those cases you can definitely raise big draws for value, but that's different.

Alright, enough. Better players feel free to correct me. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]
