Continue with Caution

Continuation betting in online poker is a tricky subject. There is one point I would like to make. Half the skill of a good continuation bet in live play is how you bet it. Tricking people into thinking you have something better than you do through your mannerisms. You don't get to do that in online poker. So you're only continuation betting with half your arsenal. Rememeber, a continuation bet is essentially a bluff and bluffing online is much harder.

Yeah, the secret of bluffing, I love it!Watch the board, what has your opponent? did he bet on his King? does an Ace show up?
Does he have Aces and is afraid to be destroyed again by the straight or flush that developped on the board? In that case go all in IMMEDIATELY and rapidly as soon as the card turns up. But be aware of your readings and your opponent, he might have set up a trap on you three rounds ago ;)


The essencial: don't bluff an experienced player, when the turn/river did not set up a complete change of situation:cool:
Make it the one and only card you've been waiting for! Don't threaten him with your last 2000 chips, if 24000 are already in the pot and he has 40.000 more. Choose your spots, bluffing is essencial in poker, ask ryder :cool:

Depends on how many opponents in the game, who they are, what cards on the table, ...

Continuation bet is one of the best Arms against tight players to steal the pot. It really works when the board hits something like 2 2 9. In this situation the first aggressor mostly takes away the pot.

I feel like you have to make continuation bets sometimes. You presented your hand as strong preflop and you should bet it like what you want your preflop raise to represent. Getting caught is okay occasionally. This will increase your odds of getting calls postflop when you do have huge hands. Obviously, if you are getting called down a lot continue less. Conversely, if you are not seeing much resistance continue more often.

You have to bet to protect your hand. To bet to see the next streets. To bet to get more chips. To bet to that everyone thinks that your hand is a monster.

good response, you can not give the initiative to your opponent, if you did RAISE you have to bet on the FLOP
