If you raised preflop, these are actually called continuation bets. If someone else raised preflop and then checks to you, it's a probe.

But yes, betting on the flop is the best way to find out where you stand.

I know the difference TP. These 2 types of bets just were not often in my repertoire. My passive ass isn't raising pf with small prs or anything below AK unless on the button or in the blinds. You should have gleaned this about me by now. lol

These types of bets NEED to be in your repertoire.... ESPECIALLY the CB (And especially in NL - they don't work as well in limit).

I'm slowly beginning to see the light here TP. Your right, I never thought these could work in my game or that i had the ability to pull them off in the right situations. But I'm learning. Keep the advice coming. It's helping my bottomline.

Something to think about.... these bets are basically a Level 1 play (hey, that's better than Level 0!). You're about 5% of the way to greatness!

Me... I think I'm a solid 37% of the way there - wooohoo - go me!
