FAQ
Position guide
| Position | Action |
|---|---|
| UTG | Fold. 76o has very low value in UTG position, difficult to continue facing a 3-bet, and easily dominated in multi-way pots postflop. Unless the table is extremely tight, just give up. |
| MP | If no one has entered the pot from early position and the players in late position are tight, you can consider limping or raising 2-3 BB, but be cautious because 76o is susceptible to reverse implied odds. |
| CO | 5-3BB, frequency about 20%. Use position advantage, fold if facing 3bet. Postflop can steal blinds or draw to straight, but avoid large pots. |
| BTN | 5-3BB, frequency about 40%. Use button position to steal blinds or enter the pot. If the blinds 3bet, decide whether to call based on opponent tendencies call when implied odds are good. |
| SB | If you have an advantage in the blinds and the BB is tight, you can limp or raise to 2BB, but be careful post-flop due to poor position. |
| BB | Post-flop, if you hit a straight or two pair, play aggressively; otherwise fold. Heads-up, you can defend against a small raise. |
Postflop board textures
g. 7♣2♦9♠
Top pair or middle pair can be value bet, but watch your kicker. If the flop has no straight draw, you can check to control the pot. Facing aggressive action, be cautious when calling, as the opponent may have an overpair or top pair.
Wet connected board e.g. 9♠8♠7♥
Hit a straight or open-ended straight draw, aggressively bet or raise to protect your hand. If you haven't hit, you can semi-bluff raise, using drawing potential. Note the possibility of a flush draw.
g., K♠K♦7♣
If you miss, usually check-fold, because opponents may hold overpairs or top pairs. If you hit a 7, you can bet cautiously, but beware of opponents having a K. Avoid large pots.
Hand board label: 76o Flush board e.g. A♠8♠3♠
No flush draw, usually check-fold. If hitting a straight or two pair, can bet but need to be aware that opponent may have a flush. Be cautious calling due to reverse implied odds.
