Hello, how to handle top set on dynamic flop & spr high? Ex: You have QQxx on QJ4ss OOP and SPR = 2 or 3 or 5. But Turn could complete straight or flush. I see people just x/c if turn straight or flush come. If they have flush, you just have 20% top set vs flush. And They bet pot turn, we need 33% to call. Thanks

@@lupin9364 this varies for a couple of different reasons. The one thing that I think a lot of people make the mistake of - is thinking they always have to bet pot. - it also becomes player dependent (what type of players are you playing against) and also what stakes your playing. In theory, stakes shouldn’t matter, but in reality, higher stakes games will recognize players who play passively and will pounce on that regularly. It also depends on how many people you’re facing. If you are heads up - I’m more likely to continue with a bet - if you’re multi-way and oop I’m more likely to either do a small bet or x/C depending on spr of opponent. It does boil down to a few other factors to consider - but I hope this helps answer your question (my first word of advice is you don’t always have to bet pot!). But always keep in mind the largest bet you can make is usually on the river. When it comes to a higher stakes game for example, flop may be QJ4ss and you hold QQxx and your opponent holds JJxx (with one space) if spade falls on the turn and you check, they’ll recognize that faster and most likely bet - protecting their 2nd set, with a single spade blocker, but also recognizing that if you lead with a wrap draw, now a spade makes your wrap worthless. Ty for the question and ty for watching. I hope this gives you a little more insight!

one of the ways you can double check how much a pot bet is, see if the previous bettor is getting 2:1. so in the example given, where the pot is $100, a bettor bets $20, then you raise it to $160, now the pot is 120+160=280, and the original bettor has to call off $140 to call your raise, so he's getting 280/140=2:1

14:01 I have not seen your opponent's hands, but I am pretty sure neither player had any business calling your bets. As played, I would probably bet the turn as you did, but I'd be very worried if called in 2 spots. I feels like one opponent has the 5d and most likely has another diamond. The other player is probably not supposed to be in the pot, but probably has some monsters draw on the other board and is too stupid to fold it. I would expect to be ahead on top and behind on bottom, but with 2 chances to get a good river card, this was still not a bad spot to be in thanks to your 2 way hand. As it stands, nobody even had diamonds. Very strange.
