PrtyPSux 0 Posted February 23, 2005 Share Posted February 23, 2005 In NL holdem I usually go in by raising preflop..when I do raise and see a flop I usually take a stab at it ,, say I raise 2 dlrs when the BigBlind is .50 and I get 2 callers the pot is now about 6.25 or so..I take a 4 dlr stab at the pot. I find that maybe 50% of the money that I win comes out of those little pots I'm taking. But I also figured out that %90 of the money I lose comes from bluffing after I get my $4 dlrs called on the flop. Is it wrong to take stabs at every pot where you are the raiser? Should I stop my bluff if I get called on the flop? but wont that show weakness and encourage people to raise my bets on the flop with weaker hands? I would like to recieve some advice because I noticed that if it wasnt for my maniacal bets I wouldnt lose as much (but I also dont know if I would win as much because people are giving me more action) help! please!

Learn your opponents and bet on flops you think they didn't hit. It takes a lot of practice. Link to post Share on other sites
