Default Re: Should I CB? A Quiz.

(i'm answering with out reading replies first - this should be a poll)


1. Yes
2. Yes
3. Yes
4. Yes
5. No. I'll let a card come off, and bet it if it's high(hope it's a four)
6. No. Too high a chance they've hit I'd like a free card. Too many cards in the zone
7. No. Too high a chance they've got a good spade and I don;t want to have to fire three barrels and get called down by top pair
8. No. OOP with JT 2flush board not fun!

Pre-flop: (6 players) Hero is CO with A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]
2 folds, <font color="#cc0000">Hero raises to $2</font>, 1 folds, SB calls, BB folds.

Flop: 2[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] ($4.5, 2 players)
SB checks, Hero...

<font color="blue">No. On a paired broadway flop, you should often check behind with a KK-type hand. This will get you two streets of value from 88 and lose the least when they have the Q. So, I like a check here. They are never folding a better hand to a CB. You can delay your CB til the turn, or check it down and hope your A9 holds up agst his JT. </font>

Very interesting, never thought about this. Nice thread.

how many people saw the magazine article about cbetting? paired flops are where you get the most successful cbets.

1.y
2.y
3.no, you can pick up this hand often enough if the flop gets checked to swing it to a no for me.
4.y
5.y
6.y
7.no, SB has so many options in this hand and deep stacked I'm looking for a better spot.
8.no, this is a flop that a favourable turn card for your hand can get you commited to a bad situation

Yes to all, but for the last hand

Here you are facing 2 opponenents,
you are OOP ,
the board has medium cards
FD
Straight possible.
they are probably calling you with any piece. Whether it is a BIG mistake to Cbet i dont think so- because you DO have overcards + gutshot and backdoor 2nd nut flush draw, but i think a check/ Call is better than a Cbet here if anything

Default Re: Should I CB? A Quiz.

1. Yes
2. Yes
3. Yes
4. Yes
5. Yes
6. No
7. No
8. No

1. Board is dry. Kx isn't a large part of his range. Bet

2. Paired boards almost never hit our opponents, if he has a mid pair he will give it up often depending on what hits on later streets, easy to take away later and probably will succeed now. If he DOES have a queen you will know soon enough so its still a safe C bet.

3. Gotta rep hitting that flop. Unlikely villain has called with anything that hit this flop hard here.

4. Basically, we aren't really c betting here. This is pure value.

5. Very dry flop and we have backdoor flush and gutshot. Why wouldn't we bet here? Villain is extremely unlikely to have hit anything and even if he has we have potential to take it away later or hit a really disguised gutshot.

6. That board hit his calling range massively. We are getting check raised a lot here, take the free card as he is almost never firing out on turn as a bluff anyway.

7. I check. Too unlikely you are going to get folds here. I do bet sometimes especially vs one opponent, but vs two callers I am checking.

8. You are OOP looking at a board very likely to have hit your opponents quite hard. They called an UTG raise so mid to high suited connectors are a decent part of their range and they all have a piece here. I check fold all day here.

Good set of replies guys. I think a lot of people need to reevaluate how often they c bet and on what sort of board textures if they aren't checking at least 2 of these with a high regularity.
