I like calling and then leading the turn to a non diamond here and folding to a raise. 3-betting with no reads on the flop doesn't seem to great for me, not to mention you make the pot huge when he just calls.

I'd call, planning to bet a blank turn. He might be trying to snap off a CBet here. Also, bet the pot, not just 1/2 of it. He may have sensed weakness here, hence my theory that he's trying to snap your cbet.

My CB are usually 1/2 pot whether I hit or miss, should i bet more like 3/4 to full in either case?

[/ QUOTE ] This seems absolutely solid to me. While my initial reaction to the op's dilemma was to re-raise, I like your line much better... |

I like to bet 2/3 to a full. Gives better value for when I actually hit and I feel that it shows more strength, inducing more folds

Half-pot continuation bets just don't get the job done. Make it 3/4-to-full pot, depending on what you're most comfortable with. The 3/4 bets give you better odds on your continuations, and the full pots give you bigger pots when you hit. As a result, I like LAG players to bet 3/4, but TAG players to bet the full pot, simply because LAG players have a higher c-bet-to-value-bet ratio than TAGs do. Oh, and I agree with the other posters: call the bet and lead any non-diamond turn (solidly, say for the full pot), folding to a raise. |

Re: I\'m lost and this is basic...
will,
Your cbets should be between 2/3 pot and pot...with most of them being nearer to pot. Given stack sizes, I like a push on the flop...he has a weaker queen often and will call the push IMO. To those saying call and lead a blank turn....a) check stack sizes. b) Why the non-diamond turn? If you think he has a flush draw...raise!! |

Re: I\'m lost and this is basic...
thanks a lot Pokey, but I' wondering if a Potsize CB against a player I know will call with any piece of the baord of any type of draw is good or even a high card? I guess I should bet less against these type of player and go full pot against "normal" opponent?
