How
to Bet the Flop
Phil
Gordon - When
I'm thinking about my actions after the
flop or turn, I look to the "texture"
of the board - i.e., what cards are in play,
and how might they interact with my opponent's
likely starting hands - to help determine
if and how much I will bet.
My normal post-flop betting range is one
third of the pot to the full size of the
pot. The texture of the board dictates where
in that range I choose to bet, and I determine
that based on the following four factors:
1. How strong is my hand with respect to
all of the likely hands for my opponent?
If I have a very strong hand with respect
to all of the likely starting hands for
my opponent, I'll usually go for the lower
end of the spectrum, betting around 1/3
of the pot. I want my opponent to call.

to bet the flop.
