Hey guys.
Im new to this site so i would like to say HELLO to the forum.

I have a question, i have been playing poker for a few years and im just starting to learn and understand strategys and so on. I have been making good runs in MTT in the last few months. One thing that confuses me are the terms 'wet flop and dry flop.'
Could anyone give me some examples of wet flops and dry flops, or what to look for.
Thanks in advance

Hi and welcome to CC.

A dry flop is a unconnected flop, for instance A♠ 9♥ 2♦. There are no flush draws here, no straight draws and pairs, two pairs and sets rule here.

A wet flop is a very connected flop, for instance Q♦ J♠ 9♦. There are possible straights, flush draws and so on. If a raise happens, it can be a set, a semi-bluff for a flush draw of a open-ended staight draw or a value bet for a straight.

Reading the flop well will allow you to pick better when to c-bet, when to raise, when to call. Overall a good flop decision will influence the rest of the hand, your EV over time and so on.
