Poker Term
CO位转牌挤压底池（CO Turn Squeeze Pot）
CO Turn Squeeze Pot
Refers to a strategy where, on the turn, a player in the CO Cutoff position, in a multi-way pot, after facing a bet from an earlier position player and at least one call, raises in an attempt to force other players to fold and win the pot.
Concept Analysis
CO Turn Squeeze Pot is an aggressive play on the turn, commonly seen in No-Limit Hold'em. Its core lies in leveraging positional advantage (CO, seated to the right of the button, is a late position) to apply pressure by raising when opponents' ranges are relatively solidified on the turn.
Applicable Scenarios
- Multiway Pot: Typically requires at least two players to have entered on the flop, with an early-position player betting on the turn and at least one opponent calling.
- Board Texture: The turn card should be coordinated (e.g., straight or flush draw possibilities), making opponents' ranges contain many uncompleted hands, so a raise forces folds more easily.
- Opponent Tendencies: Works best against aggressive or loose-passive players; tight players may hold strong hands.
Execution Key Points
- Bet Sizing: Usually 2/3 to full pot to maximize fold equity.
- Own Range: The CO player should hold semi-bluffs (e.g., draws) or made hands, avoiding pure air.
- Risk Control: If an opponent fights back (re-raise), evaluate your hand strength and pot odds.
Notes
- This is not a standard term; different sources may call it "turn squeeze" or "CO turn raise".
- Overusing it can lead to opponent adjustments; adapt based on specific opponents and game dynamics.
