Seems like most persons are constantly talking about pre-flop method, so I wanted to speak a tiny bit about how I wager on immediately after the flop. Maybe I can support others, or possibly they have advice to enhance my play.

I believe that two of the most essential plays after the flop are the semi-bluff and the defensive wager. That's because these are the plays you make whenever you havent hit a hand except you might have a great drawing hand. Its easy to bet on a hand whenever you flop a monster. Except I imagine that these 2 are the very best techniques to bet on a drawing. Each one is wagered depending on you challenger(s) and your postion. So here is how I wager on it, so tell me what you think.

Early Position - Tight Opponents:

A semi-bluff works fairly properly in this position. Come out wagering and if a tight player did not hit a hand he will most likely lay down, and if he is unsure you may have a call. Except watch out, if that tight gambler comes back more than the top it may perhaps be time to acquire away.

Early Position - Loose Competitors

It is were I like to try and do a defensive bet. Come to a decision how a lot of chips you're willing to chance on your draw and wager. It is usually a much lower wager than normal. It's been my encounter that the loose player will usually just call a bet rather than re-raise. However, when you check to them, theyre more likely to throw in additional chips than your willing to pay.

Late Place - Tight Opponents

That is the greatest time to try and do a semi-bluff, specially if most of the table checks. If that is the case you will probaly pick up the pot now. If a gambler prior to has wager, you might have to make a decision if he has a hand or not. If not, then reraise and he will probably go away since he was trying to steal the pot. If you believe he does, effectively then it is time to calculate your odds, and decide if the pot odds are worth the call.

Late Location - Loose Competitors

This one can be a bit complicated, because it's tougher to put a loose gambler on a hand. And if your in late position against loose gambler, chances are they have already bet. This can be had been I usually decide to take a chance and come back more than the best of them and hope they don't call, and if they do, well then its time to gamble. Odds are though even a loose gambler will go away in the event you come back strong enough.

Bear in mind although that these are moves I only generate immediately after the flop comes and I have a reasonable drawing hand (usually not a gutshot either). Perhaps 4 to the flush or the open ended straight, for example.
