When you see a 3-way flop in position against two opponents and you are the preflop raiser, they both check to you on both the flop and turn. In this situation you can usually take a profitable 3/4 pot stab at the pot with ATC.
If that was messy, here is a typical hand that fits the criterias: 6 handed, 100bb stacks Hero is CO with 8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 2 folds, Hero raises to 4bb, BTN folds, SB calls 3.5bb, BB calls 3bb. Flop: (12bb) J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]2[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]4[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] SB checks, BB checks, Hero checks Turn: (12bb) 4[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] SB checks, BB checks, Hero bets 9bbs What I think, based on experience, is that in situations like this one, where you are the preflop raiser, chose not to cbet the flop into two villains (for whatever reason you might have), but then they both check to you again on the turn, then the pot is usually for you to take down. You can't stab at the flop as profitably, because on the flop they could have TPTK/two pair/set or a lot of strong hands that they check to the PFR to induce a cbet. However, if they have something on the flop and it checks through, they usually reason that the turn is the time to bet. Once they check again on the turn, it usually means that they don't have much at all IMO. Discuss. |

in both of those, the board pairs low, so i'd say that your bluff there is a lot better than it normally would be.

[/ QUOTE ] good point, but i still think you can bluff in profitably in these hands with other blank turn cards, especially hand 2. hand 1 id be more careful/do it less often with the fdraw out there. in general you should only try this on drawless boards. |

i'd personally just c-bet the flop on hand 2 since it's most likely not hit any of your two opponents.

this is standard.
can also be applied to limped pots with certain flop textures. ie: no one checks with TP on a T52r flop. |
