Best Ways
Hi,
Most of the time, flop appears and I don’t yet have anything good like a strong flush draw or an open-ended straight draw. Then at some point where I already have lots of outs to bring me a hand I will feel pot will be granted to me. However, I typically check when such thing happens. I also mix up a bit of betting stuff to my style so that players can’t nail down any patterns. But my approach wasn’t effective one time. I expected to hit but I end up frustrated, no hit at all. I thought of checking however I may look like a weak one.
In your case, how often do you bet a draw as opposed to checking it with a hope of getting a free card? And do you know all the best pots to bet on a draw? Lastly, when you can’t hit on the turn and/or river, what’s the best way to go on?
I’ll be glad to hear from you soon.
Thanks in advance!
Warm regards,
Tristan
Tristan,
When you are in position and are on a draw, those are the best times to bet to try and get a free card. That way, players will tend to check to you on the turn. When you are unable to hit on the turn or the river, if you do not have a hand, you can either try to fire out a bluff at the end or check it down and save your losses. A lot of this will depend on the player that you are against and the likelihood they will fold to your bet. Now chances are you will be bet into on the river if you checked on the turn. In this case, you likely should fold.
