Massive Profit at the Micros
This is especially the case on wet and coordinated flops such as:
5♥7♥8♣
or
9♠7♦8♠
There are a ton of hands that potentially could have hit these boards in some way. Your opponent (especially if
they are loose) could have so many different straight and flush draws, pairs, two pairs and pair + draw hands on
these flops.
So if you have nothing at all and you are OOP against a calling station on a wet and coordinated flop, then often
the most “profitable” play is actually to just check and give up.
Raising
What about if you are the preflop caller though? Most of the
time you can probably expect to face a CBet. You can either
raise, call or fold.
If you happen to have a very strong hand (top pair top kicker
or better) then I would suggest almost always raising the flop
at these limits.
In other words, don’t slow-play your hand. Fast-play it
instead.
