Re: Pot control or protection? Discuss this texture
youīre in position so you obviously canīt bet you.
There difenitely are merits in checking but also in betting
why i would advise checkign:
- controls the size of the pot --> villain is not likely to play big pots oop
- villain will prob think hands like KQ are good on the turn and bet them for value
-if villain has a draw and the turn blanks his equity drops a lot
merits in betting:
- you prevent villain from drawing for free.
- if villain has a hand like AK (def in his range) there are many scare cards that can come on the turn and prevent any more money from going in
- if you check behind villain can easily push you of your hand if a scare card comes ( see villainīs high aggro factor)
ok i hope i helped a bit...
tried to stick to amaīs request of not answering in a 1 liner which obv wouldnīt be possible here anyways.
