Re: Weird Bluff 25/50

Its a valuebet because you are ahead >50%. Just because you may have a negative expectation if the hand continues, does not affect the reason behind the bet on that street at that time. The value lies in the pot won with this bet. [/ QUOTE ] fwiw, this is called "hand protection". However, in this hand, if we are ahead, he probably has very few outs. Thus protection is not the major concern. |

Also in CTS' new video he flops a pair of deuces from the sb on a 525 board or something and he fires and says something like "I don't expect to get called by a worse hand but I just want to take this pot down now" or something like that. [/ QUOTE ] This comes from from limit stuff, the lower the pair you flop is the more vulnerable it is. It isn't awfully good idea to overly protect your weak hands but single bet on the flop on this or similar occasions (and give it up most of the time if called) is a proper way to approach it. |

Re: Weird Bluff 25/50
Stigmta,
When I said protect, it reflects and probably dominates in respect to getting bluffed off our hand later on. Protecting our pot moreso then our hand. And again, semantics (in regards to calling it 'hand protection') if you will. The motives behind our decisions are what is important, not the name you give it. |

Re: Weird Bluff 25/50
I agree with ae here... I dont see how we can call if shoved on. I much prefer c/c here, maybe leading some % of the time, but mostly c/c.

Lol, I didn't mean to create this discussion. You can't just simply classify it as a bluff or a value bet. It's partially a semi-bluff because ideally we want better hands to fold, yet almost always have 7+ outs when beat. And it's partially a protective bet, because we get worse hands to fold. Not every bet is either a value bet or a bluff. .Point in case [/ QUOTE ] Is there a key to this case? |
