按钮位翻牌前加注者的彩虹面延迟持续下注（BTN Preflop Delayed C-Bet Rainbow）
On a rainbow flop all cards of different suits, the Button player, after raising preflop, checks the flop and then bets on the turn. This is the strategy of a delayed c-bet on a rainbow board.
Term Explanation
Delayed C-Bet is a strategy where a player checks on the flop and then bets on the turn. It is often used when the flop texture is dry or unfavorable, to gain more information or control the pot size. This strategy is particularly effective on a rainbow flop (three cards of different suits), because the rainbow texture reduces the likelihood of opponents holding flush draws, making a turn bet more likely to force folds.
After a button preflop raise, the player usually makes a continuation bet on the flop. However, if the flop texture is unsuitable or the player wants to use positional advantage to apply more pressure on the turn, they may choose a delayed C-bet. A rainbow flop is one such scenario, as no turn card can immediately complete a flush, narrowing opponents' draw ranges.
Key Implementation Points
- Check on the flop: Both players check the flop, then the button player bets on the turn.
- Timing the turn bet: The bet is more effective when the turn card has low connectivity with the flop (e.g., a blank or an unrelated card).
- Pot control: Delaying the bet avoids inflating the pot after a flop bet that might face a raise; useful when holding a marginal hand.
Example
Assume the button holds A♠K♣, and the flop is J♠8♦3♥ (rainbow). After checking the flop, the turn comes 4♣ (a blank). The button now bets about 60-70% of the pot, leveraging the strong range represented by the preflop raise to apply pressure.
