Default Re: Bet Folding

OP,

i guess the follow up is: what are bad spots to b/f?

1) when HU. in multiway pots, bluffing frequency goes way down, indeed for most opponents a big street bluff percentage is around 0% multiway. when HU this percentage increases dramatically.

2) when HU and the turn or river blanks. self-explanatory

3) when the turn puts up a flush draw and you're HU or 3 way. self-explanatory

4) when HU, and the turn or river is a scare card and its obvious that card doesnt help you

these are off the top of my head. in general, although counterintuitive, people also take more shots when the pot is smaller, knowing they have more fold equity. so keep that in mind as well.


all of this also depends on your opponents. some never bluff. some value raise the river with things you beat. it varies, which is why reads are crucial.
