How do you size a bet in poker?
Bet Sizing after the Flop – Miss-sizing of bets also occurs after the flop. So, how much should you bet? While your bet size should depend on the situation, a general rule of thumb is to bet between ½ the pot and the size of the pot. This will usually give draws incorrect odds to call, get worse hands to call and often times get better hands to fold.
- The size of your post-flop bets should be related to the amount in the pot.
- For example, let’s suppose you’re playing in a no-limit cash game and the pot contains $20 after the flop.
- A respectable bet size would be $15.
- However on the next hand the pot might be smaller, let’s say it’s just $12.
- If you’re sticking with the same bet size then, based on the pot, your bet should be $9.
This is of course assuming you’re betting 3/4 of the pot. What about betting the turn ? Well if you bet the flop and get called then obviously there’ll be more money in the pot. You have various options on the turn, but if you decide to place another wager then it should again be based on the size of the pot – so your bet on the turn will be more than the flop.

How big should 3 bets be?
Determine the size of the 3-bet. The smallest 3-bet you should make is twice the amount of the open raise, but re-raising by a factor of three is a good idea if you’re betting in position. If you’re out of position, your 3-bet sizing should be closer to four times the open raise.

What type of bet is most profitable?
Football – Many sports bettors consider football to be the best sport to bet on, and it is without a doubt the most popular. Betting on the NFL and college football brings in the most sports betting handle each year. In 2015, the American Gaming Association estimated that $93 billion was going to be wagered on college and professional football just that year.
- With sports betting having become legalized since then, that estimate could be even larger.
- The reason for football being more profitable than other sports is for that fact that favorites don’t lose as often as other sports.
- In college football, you can pencil in three different schools to make the playoffs each year and get long odds before every season.
During the season, the stronger schools usually dominate, which causes sportsbooks to give them a crazy high spread making underdog betting more profitable. For the 2020 season, CFB underdogs edged out favorites winning 50.3% of the time. As for NFL betting, one of the main reasons that it is profitable to bet on is because it is so popular.
- There is a ton of betting information available, and free betting tips and picks can be easily found.
- The only real negative is that football is only played at certain times of the year, and that can limit your betting opportunities.
- NFL football has a total of 256 total games per season which is far less than the 1230 games that the NBA or NHL offers.
This means there is less room for error.

How often should you 3-bet in poker?
When should you 3-bet? – It is easy to understand 3-betting for value. When playing solid, aggressive poker, a good rule is to always 3-bet your strongest hands. This allows you to play much larger pots with your strongest hands, and it balances your 3-bet range when you want to include bluffs and weaker hands.
- This is just scratching the surface of 3-bet theory, however.
- When you are deciding to 3-bet, you must look at the hand range that your opponent is opening from each position using the unopened preflop raised statistic (UOPFR).
- Using a hand range program like Equilab, you can estimate the range of hands they are opening, and decide what range of hands to flat call or re-raise with.
In order to profitably flat call your opponent’s opening range, you ought to have hands strong enough to have an equity advantage against their range. (Equity just means your chance of winning the pot based on the strength of your hand.) This equity advantage combined with your positional advantage postflop needs to be large enough to overcome the fact that you have a capped range against their uncapped range.
When choosing hands to re-raise in a polarized strategy (which will be explained further below), you need to be raising hands that are stronger than their range (value) and slightly too weak to call (your bluffs). It does not make sense to start 3-bet bluffing as a beginner with a hand like 34 suited.
It is much better to use a hand like A4 suited, which does much better against their calling range, while also blocking their strongest hands. For example, if you are all in preflop against KK with your bluff hand of A4 suited, you win roughly a third of the time! The additional advantage of using a hand like A4s in your bluffing range is that it makes it less likely for your opponent to have strong hands like AK or AA, because you have one of the only four aces in the deck. Before you attempt a 3-bet, however, you need to understand the relevant poker statistics and their acronyms in poker tracking software such as Poker Copilot. They are:
Fold to 3-bet preflop in position (F3B IP) ; Fold to 3-bet preflop out of position (F3B OOP) ; Folded to cbet on flop in 3-bet+ pot (FCB_3) ; 4-bet preflop (4B).
