You are playing SSHEit's been head up since after the turn bettingYou are first to actMy question:1. What situations do you bet/fold vs bet/call vs bet/raise vs check/call vs check/fold ?and 2. if (bet or check) / folding is "correct" enuf times. then should I, if acting last, raise/bet (bluffing) on the river to induce a fold? If the pot is 12bb, and you are going to fold 15% of the time, then it seems worth it.thanks.

You seem to have a very strong desire to learn a lot about SSHE, and I don't fault you for it. But I have noticed a lot of your posts on Strategy are these "what if/hypothetical" sort of dillemas. While I am sure you will get insight and response, most of these questions are easily answered by various SSHE books.But with questions like these, all the possibilities available with the incredible amount of hand holdings make it impossible to give you a good answer to your questions.I suggest you find hands in your database (if you keep one) that most reflect the situation about which you are confused, and post the hands so that we can help you with them.

SSHE is a must readi also think "Holdem for Advanced Players" is a must read, although you don't hear people say that as often.as for the wise ass thing...i got nothin but respect for insightful strategy posters.i just dont like most of the other people.good luck at the tables.
