Best way to combat cbets?
For the sake of argument you call K9s here some percent of the time. Opponent seems good, possible 2p2 or w/e. I assume all of these options should be used (with one exception) the question is which one most of the time and how often for the rest.
Assume opponent bets entire range on flop for purpose of this question. Three handed, whatever. That's not really the issue either. Button vs BB (this is a 3bet PF and a fold sometimes too IMO). This is a HEAVILY modified example of a real hand so I might [censored] up changing things around:
1.
SB ($31.45)
Button ($21.70)
Hero ($26.20)
Preflop: Hero is BB with 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].
<font color="#CC3333">Button raises to $0.8</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, Hero calls $0.55.
Flop: ($1.60) K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
Hero checks, <font color="#CC3333">Button bets $1.5</font>, Hero calls $1.5.
Turn: ($4.60) 2[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets $3.5</font>
2.

4.

----------------
Which is best, how often? How important is OUR image? Etc. I think this is a decent topic. If you always fold K9s PF here uh pretend it's something you might cold call. If you never cold call then meh, lol. If you disagree with bet sizes ignore it, pretend it's a better amount. Mmmmk? And. Go.
edit: I want to add one where we call down and one where we fold to a river bet but don't want to be redundant.
Alright, I edited like 20x so it should be looking good now.
