Post-flop Strategy - As the Pre-flop Aggressor - In Position Flashcards
What is our strategy when our opponent Donk bets with his Marginal Made Hands?
Against these bets, we should raise with our non-premium made hands. Up to 3.5 times their bet. We should call with our premium made hands, inducing him to think he has the best hand, allowing us to extract extra value on the turn and river.
When we raise on the Flop, we have to be prepared to fire 3 bullets.
What is our strategy when our opponent Donk bets with his Premium Made Hands?
Against these bets, we should raise with our absolute best premium made hands, call with our draws that are getting the right odds, and fold everything else.
What is our strategy when our opponent Donk bets with his Draws?
Against these bets, we should call with our premium made hands, marginal made hands, and draws. This will induce our opponent to continue bluffing on the turn and also ensure our draws don’t get priced out.
Raise with our premiums if they will fold their draws.
What is the plan with our premium made hands?
We want lots of money to go into the pot, bet all three streets with these hands.
What is the plan with our marginal made hands?
Plan with marginal made hands is to check and check/call on the turn. If the turn is a safe card that should not help your opponent too often, your best marginal hands such as top pair bad kicker become premium hands and can be bet. If the turn is a bad card for you, play cautiously.
Call with hands that have more outs, and opt to fold hands that only have 2 outs, like an under pair.
We only want a little bit of money to go into the pot. Whenever the alternative is to put money in marginally, you should opt to control the size of the pot and keep your hand ahead of your opponent’s range.
What is the plan with our Drawing hands?
our plan with most draws is to bet with the intention of betting again on most turns.
What is the plan with our junk hands?
Fold to a flop bet.
Plan is to check with the intention of folding to a bet on later streets.
