Poker Free Online Training Small Bet Bluff Methods And Fooling Strong Players
This latest free online poker instruction lesson is about ways you may not have thought of to use small bets to get bigger wins. But how can, you ask, small bets give big wins? And why will do good players switch from conventional big bet thinking to small?
Here’s a hand illustration that proves the idea:
BLINDS 6k/12k
PREFLOP:
A is from small blind, has got 9d-4d, raises to 35k
B from big blind, has got As-3s, calls 23k (Pot 88k)
Both plays are simply standard plays. A may be trying to steal the big blind with a raise from the small blind. B calls because he has a decent hand to take to the Flop.
FLOP: Js-Jh-10h
A bets 25k (Pot 123k)
B calls 25k (Pot 138k)
The bet A makes is small as he has very little but he wants to take the pot by showing a J on a paired table, or a draw. On a flop with Straight and Flush possibilities presenting, B might well put A on a draw and wait to see if A slows later. Also, on a call he is getting 5-to-1.
TURN: Js-Jh-10h-Kc
A bets 25k (Pot 163k)
B calls 25k (Pot 188k)
A places another bet! Might A possess the Jack or 10? Now, what B is thinking is that he is getting about 6.5-to-1 on a call to hit an Ace (where if A also has an Ace, they may split the pot) or a Queen (for a Straight). So he calls.
RIVER: Js-Jh-10h-Kc-8h
A bets 30k (Pot 218k)
Still A bets again! Now there is a blank river card that fills hardly any possible Flush or Straight combinations (possibly 9-7 or Q-9), but most likely neither of them think the other has that – so why did A bet 3 times? Not only that, it’s a small bet. It might be a value bet where A has a J and trapped B for 2 further bet rounds.
It could alternatively be a value bet with A on A-Q. B thinks: “A may know that I don’t have anything, but if he bets big he will just make me fold. So he’s betting small to get more chips out of me. I’m getting 8.5-to-1 on a call, but no matter. I am not going to fail again B says and folds.
A shows a bluff!
If A bet big B may also think that A is just sustaining a three-round bluff, and may call it. Remember, B is a strong player, and can detect chicaneries like this. (B by the way is Elky Grospellier. A is Jeff Shulman, anyway.) But A bet small, and strong players think small bets are value bets, so strong players doing reverse-psychology can bluff other strong players with a small bet that looks like a value bet.
Why not give small bet play a go by practicing risk free on a online poker free site such as NoPayPOKER where you can play with no risk of loss and get loads of free online poker training too.
