Seems like most people are constantly talking about pre-flop method, so I would like to speak a little bit about how I play immediately after the flop. Perhaps I can support others, or possibly they’ve got advice to enhance my play.
I think that two of the most essential plays following the flop are the semi-bluff and the defensive bet. That’s because these are the plays you generate whenever you havent hit a hand but you’ve got a good drawing hand. Its easy to bet on a hand when you flop a monster. But I think that these two are the greatest approaches to wager on a drawing. Each one is bet depending on you challenger(s) and your postion. So here is how I bet on it, so tell me what you think.
Early Location – Tight Competitors:
A semi-bluff works fairly effectively in this position. Are available out betting and if a tight gambler did not hit a hand he’ll probably lay down, and if he’s unsure you may well have a call. But watch out, if that tight player comes back more than the best it may well be time to acquire away.
Early Position – Loose Opponents
This really is were I like to do a defensive wager. Choose how numerous chips you’re willing to chance on your draw and bet. This is normally a much smaller wager than normal. It has been my understanding that the loose gambler will usually just call a wager instead of re-raise. On the other hand, when you check to them, theyre much more likely to throw in a lot more chips than your willing to pay.
Late Placement – Tight Competitors
It is the finest time to do a semi-bluff, especially if most of the table checks. If that’s the case you will probaly pick up the pot now. If a player prior to has wager, you might have to come to a decision if he has a hand or not. If not, then reraise and he will probably go away since he was attempting to steal the pot. Should you believe he does, well then it’s time to calculate your odds, and decide if the pot odds are worth the call.
Late Position – Loose Competitors
This one is a bit tricky, simply because it is more difficult to put a loose player on a hand. And if your in late place against loose gambler, chances are they have already wager. This really is had been I usually choose to take a chance and arrive back over the best of them and pray they do not call, and if they do, nicely then its time to wager. Chances are although even a loose gambler will go away if you appear back strong enough.
Don’t forget though that these are moves I only produce after the flop comes and I have a reasonable drawing hand (usually not a gutshot either). Possibly 4 to the flush or the open ended straight, for example.
